Royal Anglesey Yacht Club, Green Edge

A late Georgian symmetrical 3-storey terrace of 12 bays, built as 3 reflected pairs of 2-bay houses. The central 4 bays are brought forward under a shallow pediment. The walls are pebble-dashed with rusticated quoins, beneath a hipped roof of large slates. Large transverse stone chimney stacks stand to the right and left of centre, with a smaller transverse stone stack set back from the right end and a stone stack in-line and set back from the left end.

Across the full width of the front runs a hipped veranda with slate roof carried on wooden posts, latticework infill, and arched openings. The lower and middle storeys have 12-pane hornless sash windows. The upper storey has similar but smaller 6-pane sashes, except the left-hand bay which is blind with painted glazing bars, and the bay set back from the right end (No 6), which has a 4-pane sash window set slightly higher and beneath a gable. Entrances are positioned in the inner bays of each pair of houses, set slightly further inward than the windows above, all with 4-pane overlights. No 1 has a panel door with flush lower panels and glazed upper panels. Nos 2 and 3 have panel doors with flush lower panels. Nos 4 and 5 are similar, but with fielded panels over lower flush panels. The entrance to No 6 is in the end wall; in place of a doorway, it has a sash window in its inner bay, in line with the upper storey windows.

The asymmetrical 4-bay right end wall is dominated by a wide full-height canted bay on the left side. This bay has 12-pane hornless sash windows in each facet in the lower and middle storeys. In the upper storey, the right facet has a 6-pane hornless sash window, the central facet is blind with painted glazing bars, and the left facet has a replacement window. Otherwise, windows are 12-pane hornless sashes in the lower and middle storeys and shorter 6-pane sashes in the upper storey, except the bay left of centre which has a blind window with painted glazing bars. In the 2 central bays stands a hipped lean-to porch of around 1900, spanning the original entrances to No 6 (the news and billiards room) and No 7. The porch has a single entrance with a Tudor arch and sunk spandrels, flanked by 3-light windows with wooden mullions and transoms and leaded glazing. Half-lit doors to the right and left inside the porch, and a 2-light window in the right-hand return, feature similar glazing.

The 2-window left end wall of No 1 is slightly splayed. It has 12-pane horned sash windows in the lower and middle storeys and shorter 6-pane horned sash windows in the upper storey.

The rear elevation of the main range has mainly sash windows similar to the front. Each pair has a 2-storey gabled wing. The wing behind Nos 1 and 2 retains its original end stack and has replacement openings to No 1 (where it has been converted to a separate dwelling known as 1A) and sash windows to No 2. It has been further extended; in 1A it retains 16-pane and 9-pane hornless sashes. No 3 has replacement small-pane sashes in its rear wing, and No 4 retains 12-pane hornless sashes in the upper storey with a replacement window and door below. In No 5 the rear wing is a lean-to against the 3-storey No 7 in the end elevation. No 7 has a lower 2-storey rear wing with pebble-dashed walls, a roof of large slates, and middle-storey escape doors. On its left side, in line with the front elevation of No 7, is a 2-storey hipped lean-to with roof of small slates and small-pane horned sash windows.

Interior features include the original separate entrances to Nos 6 and 7 retained within the porch; the entrance to No 7 also retains a 4-pane overlight. No 6 has a full-height open-well stair with wreathed handrail, plain balusters, and scrolled tread ends. The rooms to the left in the lower and middle storeys retain panelled shutters. Part of the original stair survives from first-floor level in No 7, an open-well stair with plain balusters.
