Description
6 Fron Dirion Terrace is a two-storey, two-window building with a rendered facade. The building dates to the 18th century and exhibits classical detailing. It has a slate roof and cement-rendered chimney stacks at each end. Prominent pilasters with acanthus capitals rise to an egg-and-dart cornice, supporting a deep entablature decorated with stucco wreaths. Splayed bay windows are set into each end, framing paired entrances sheltered by pedimented architraves. A twin-arched-panelled door remains in place at number 7. Sash windows are present, though altered on the building's frontage, with marginal glazing bars visible at number 7. A section of slate hanging is on the left-hand side. A modern extension connects the building to number 5 over a side passage.
