Description

Glyndwr Milk Bar is a three-plus-storey, three-window commercial building 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 has three round-arched timber dormers with gabled slate roofs and slated cheeks. The building includes round-arched Victorian sash windows. The second-floor center window has a shouldered segmental moulded label above it, flanked by pilasters and a panelled apron below the sill band. Similar detailing is found 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 showcases a fine contemporary shopfront with a cornice over a plain entablature. It has eight moulded round-arched openings with fielded spandrels, and the pilasters rise through the entablature from capitals that also have fielded panels. The stallrisers 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 shopfronts return one bay to the left side elevation and three bays to the right side, which includes a blind window in the center.

The elevation facing Glyndwr Street features three windows, with three dormers in the attic. The second and first-floor windows are Victorian sashes with rock-faced architraves. Two similar windows flank a central doorway to the right, topped by a deep rectangular fanlight over a 19th-century door. Adjoining to the right is a contemporary one-and-a-half-storey, one-window cottage, built of snecked masonry with a slate roof and a stone stack raised in brick. This cottage has a gablet on the first floor with bargeboards, a Victorian sash window with a stone lintel above, and a similar window below on the ground floor. The doorway is offset to the left, with a rectangular fanlight over a partially glazed 19th-century door.
