Description

Watling House is an early 19th-century building located on Bridge High Street. It is two storeys tall and constructed of painted brick, topped with a hipped Welsh slate roof. The facade features two windows with rendered lintels, hung sashes that include glazing bars, and a door made up of six fielded panels topped by a rectangular fanlight. There is also a shop window framed by a narrow wooden pilaster surround. This building is included for its group value with other nearby structures.
