Description

The Cedars, now comprising numbers 1, 2, 3, and 4, is a pair of semi-detached villas dating to around 1840. Subsequent additions and alterations have been made, including mid-20th century extensions to the rear. The construction is brick with painted stucco facades and a Welsh slate roof, and the architectural style is Neo-Tudor.

The buildings are two storeys with attics, and feature five first-floor windows. Alternate bays project and are gabled, with the bay to the right being more deeply recessed and incorporating an attached conservatory to the left. There are four roll-edged steps leading to an off-centre entrance, with a glazed door to the left and a six-panel door with Gothic tracery and margin lights (containing stained glass) to the right. The entrances are set within four-centred, moulded surrounds with thin colonnettes and hoodmoulds that have face stops; battlements are present to the right, and buttresses mark the angles. Two canted bays are present to the ground floor, with an additional canted bay extending to full height on the right - the left bay carries four 1/1 sashes, while the others have four pointed-arched sashes with margin lights. All ground-floor windows have chamfered surrounds and sills, and a frieze of shields. To the left of the four bays is a frieze with fleurons and a continuous lattice-work balustrade. The first floor features alternate three- and one-light windows, and a four-light window with half-lancet sashes and margin lights. These windows also have hollow-chamfered surrounds, chamfered sills, and hollow-moulded hoods. The attic windows are smaller, pointed-arched sashes with margin lights and hollow-moulded hoods with floral stops. A moulded band runs centrally and to the right, and there is a low parapet with finials to the gable apex and ends. End stacks are also present. The conservatory features quatrefoil decoration to its frieze.

Internally, the buildings retain original joinery, including shutters to some windows.
