Description
Friar's Terrace is a three-storey building with a seven-window ashlar front, featuring a central three bays that are slightly advanced. It has a hipped slate roof and cement render chimney stacks. The building retains small pane sash windows at No 3 and on the ground and first floors of No 1. The doors are six-panel; the central door at No 2 has a broad segmental-headed main entrance flanked by sidelights and topped with a seven-pane fanlight, while Nos 1 and 3 have six-pane doors. Slate steps lead up to each entrance from boarded doors at road level.
In front, there are coursed stone walls enclosing the forecourt gardens, along with iron railings featuring trellises and finials. The rear of No 3 has small pane sash windows set in rubble.
To the east, there was formerly the Bangor Turnpike House on the A5, which is believed to have been built by Thomas Telford. The terrace features similar railings to those that were on the Menai Bridge, suggesting it may also be by Telford.
At the time of inspection in October 1987, No 1 was undergoing renovation.
