Cartref with Attached Outbuilding

Cartref with attached outbuilding is a house that was formerly two shops, dating from the early 19th century. It has a timber frame that is plastered and scored to resemble ashlar, while the former shops are made of flint with red brick dressings. The roofs are pantiled, with the main range at the front featuring black glazed tiles.

The building consists of a three-bay, two-storey central block flanked by one-bay, one-storey shops at each end. The ground floor has a central entrance with a part-glazed and part-raised six-panel recessed door, a fanlight, and an architrave with shaped brackets supporting the cornice. There are 16-pane architraved sash windows with scored key-blocked heads. On the first floor, there are four 8-pane architraved sash windows. The building features an offset plinth and a modillioned eaves cornice.

External stacks are located at the ends, with axial stacks in the shop bays. The shops have inner boarded and panelled doors with cambered heads, and the outer shop windows are 8-pane units under segmental gauged brick arches, with a cornice on the left. The left end has two 2-light casements with segmental heads, while the right end is roughcast and includes an attic light. At the rear, there is a central door and a 2-light casement; the left shop extends slightly further, and the right shop has an original part-leaded casement.

Attached to the rear right is a flint and red brick link with a slate roof that connects to a former stable and coach house outbuilding, which runs parallel to the house at the rear. This outbuilding is made of rendered clay lump and has a hipped slate roof, with a lean-to outshut on the right end.
