Description

Rowleys is a detached house located at No. 12 North Street, dating from the 17th century. It features a facade made of ham stone ashlar, with coursed rubble on the sides and rear, and a Welsh slate roof that has coped gables and stone chimney stacks. The building is two storeys high and consists of four bays. It has hollow chamfered mullioned windows with three lights, which do not have labels above but include a continuous label below that steps up over the cambered arched doorway in the third bay. This doorway contains a part-glazed 19th-century door, and all the windows are fitted with horizontal bar inserts. There is a flat-roofed extension at the rear, but the interior has not been seen.
