Description

Numbers 32 and 32A are early 19th-century houses that have been converted into offices. The buildings feature ashlar on the ground floor and stucco on the upper levels, topped with a hipped Welsh slate roof. They are three storeys tall and include a cellar, with a three-window range that has 20th-century plain sashes set in moulded cases. The central entrance has a part-glazed six-panel door within a moulded architrave, topped by a restored wooden flat hood supported by fluted pilasters, and is flanked by plain sashes in moulded cases.

On the right side, there are two two-tier canted bays and a canted oriel window with coloured leaded lights, above an outshut that has two six-over-six sash windows in moulded cases. To the left, there is a later outshut with a plain sash in a moulded case and a similar sash on the left return side, along with a yellow brick stack. The rear wing is finished in stucco with a hipped "turnerized" slate roof and features a rubble stack at the back, as well as a three-light casement window in a moulded case above a deep jetty. The left wing has a gable facing the road, is roughcast over coursed rubble, and has a hipped "turnerized" Welsh slate roof, a loft door, and a three-light casement with leaded lights, along with various windows and doors on the right return side.
