Newsagents

This is a three to four-storey commercial building dating from the 19th century, featuring classical details. It is constructed of snecked rubble masonry with freestone dressings and has rock-faced quoins. The hipped slate roof has an eaves cornice supported by modillions, and there are stone stacks with moulded caps.

The attic includes three round-arched timber dormers with gabled slate roofs and slated cheeks. The building has round-arched Victorian sash windows. The second-floor centre window is adorned with a shouldered segmental moulded label, flanked by pilasters and a panelled apron below the sill band. There are similar details on the bipartite windows under pediments on either side. The aprons drop down to flat moulded labels over the first-floor windows, which feature Caernarvon arches, pilasters, and a sill band.

The ground floor boasts a fine contemporary shopfront, complete with a cornice over a plain entablature. It has eight moulded round-arched openings with fielded spandrels and fielded panels on the pilasters that rise through the entablature from capitals with fielded panels on plain main pilasters. The stall risers are plastered, and there are recessed doorways with stone steps leading down to the street in the second bay from the left and the second bay from the right. The shopfront features contemporary doors and railings for the newsagents and returns one bay to the left side elevation and three bays to the right side, which includes a blind window in the centre.

The elevation facing Glyndwr Street has three windows, with three dormers in the attic. The second and first floors have three Victorian sash windows with rock-faced architraves. There are two similar windows flanking a central doorway to the right, topped by a deep rectangular fanlight over a 19th-century door. To the right, there is a contemporary one-and-a-half-storey, one-window cottage that adjoins the building. This cottage features a snecked masonry front, a slate roof, and a stone stack raised in brick. It has a gablet on the first floor with bargeboards, a Victorian sash window with a stone lintel, and a similar window below on the ground floor. The doorway is offset to the left and has a rectangular fanlight over a partially glazed 19th-century door.
