Description
Plas Newydd, formerly known as the premises of Nurses TV & Radio, is a building constructed from coursed rubble masonry, which is rendered at the front and has later extensions on the left gable ends. It features a moderately pitched slate roof on the rear range and a square stone stack on the left with water tabling. The façade includes two semi-apsidal bays, which were formerly slate hung and have hipped slate roofs, flanking a slightly recessed central bay that has a pediment treatment. There are lateral stacks on the extreme right and on the left side of the centre and left-hand bays, with the latter being rendered.
The central bay's pediment-like gable rests on a timber dentil cornice above a bipartite Victorian sash window, which is flanked by thin half-round pilasters. The flanking apsidal bays feature a dentil eaves cornice and tripartite Victorian sashes that are canted back. All first-floor glazing was formerly small paned sashes. The ground floor has a continuous fascia over the shopfronts, with recessed entrances, modern doors, and shop windows.
To the left, there is a later asymmetric twin-gabled extension facing Meyrick Street, which has bargeboards and exposed purlins, and is pebbledashed. This extension features Victorian sash windows, with one at the apex of the left gable and three on the first floor, the right one being narrower. There is a modern window on the ground floor left, a doorway in the centre with a small window to the left, and a cellar opening below with a wooden shutter. A Victorian sash window is located to the right. Additionally, a low flat-roofed extension adjoins the apsidal bay on the right.
The central bay facing Eldon Square was the Red Lion Public House in 1820. Inside, the first floor retains sturdy chamfered beams.
