Description
Alcatraz is a long, low, two-storey building dating from the 19th century. It features a rendered front with a scribed cement finish on No 20 and a painted plinth on Alcatraz. The building has a steep old slate roof with overhanging eaves and rubble chimney stacks, although the stack for No 16 has been removed. The chimney for No 18 is particularly tall and has been heightened with brick. Alcatraz has prominent modern blinds, and the first floor primarily consists of 16-pane sash windows, while No 16 has one sash window on the ground floor, with fixed glazed windows and small panes on No 20. The doors are modern, half-glazed, and boarded.
The right-hand gable end is made of rubble, and the rear has an undulating slate roof that backs onto the burial ground of Penlan Chapel.
Internally, the buildings have been significantly modernised, and the dividing wall between Nos 14 and 16 has been removed.
