Description

A row of cottages, now a shop and one house, was built in the early 19th century. The building is constructed of local stone rubble, with the shop front rendered and colourwashed. The roof is mainly Welsh slate, with plain clay tiles at the east end, and features brick and stone chimney stacks. The building is two storeys high and comprises five bays. It has 16-pane sash windows, set flush, with a shop window and doorway in the lower bay of the second bay. A fascia covers the space between bays one and two, above which is an early 20th-century boarded door with a flat timber porch hood supported by battered stone piers. Underneath the third bay are timber garage doors. A part-glazed door, sheltered by a hipped tiled and timber porch hood, sits between bays four and five. The interior was not inspected.
