Nos 403 & 405 Abergele Road

Nos 403 and 405 Abergele Road are part of a group of buildings that includes Nos 399-425 Abergele Road and 1 Princess Road in Old Colwyn. This group features a large building at the corner of Princess Road (Nos 417-425), which was likely the first constructed, originally serving as a single shop with accommodation. It now consists of a terrace of six shops with accommodation above, which has been subdivided into two shops and accommodation. The terrace of six shops is stepped down on a sloping site and is built of rock-faced coursed and squared rubble with ashlar dressings, topped with slate roofs that have red tiled cresting. Nos 417-425 feature stone axial stacks, while the adjoining terrace has brick end wall stacks.

Nos 399-415 comprise six shops, each highlighted by a crow-stepped main gable and a smaller gable above a subsidiary bay. The ground floor shop fronts have mostly been renewed, but pavement canopies remain at Nos 413 and 415. Each main gable has timber canted oriel windows on the first floor with slate roofs, and there are 2-pane sash windows on each floor in the smaller gables. The main gables also include 2-pane sash windows in their apexes.
