2, The Village

2, The Village is one of two unequal terraces of cottages built around 1857 during the time of Hugh Williams, who later became the 3rd baronet Bodelwyddan. These cottages were constructed to accompany the church, parsonage, and schools that were established under the guidance of his sister, Lady Margaret Willoughby de Broke. The development was planned as part of the west side of a street that runs at right angles to St Asaph Road, directly opposite the vicarage.

The northern terrace originally consisted of six cottages, now seven. They are designed in a picturesque style with slight Gothic elements. The lower windows project on brackets, and the doors feature pointed arches with porch roofs supported by brackets and decorative bargeboards. In the arrangement of the cottages, numbers 3 and 6 stand slightly forward and have gabled fronts, while the other cottages have eaves at the front with dormers. The cottages are constructed from axe-dressed local limestone laid in an informal coursing pattern, with ashlar window surrounds. The roofs are slate, laid in regular courses with tile ridges, and feature ridge chimneys that have an offset just above the ridge level and enlarged cornices. The upper windows, both in the gables and dormers, are 6-pane, 2-light casement windows, while the lower windows are projected and topped with slate roofs. The two advancing cottages are also distinguished by the placement of the door and a projecting window under a single roof.

The terrace includes a saddlery shop attached to the northernmost cottage and a bakery attached to the southernmost. The saddlery shop at the northern end was converted into an additional cottage (number 1), while the bakery at the southern end is now part of cottage number 7.

At the rear of the terrace, there are six wash-houses with latrines arranged as freestanding pairs. Beyond a rear lane, there was a row of pigsties, some of which, such as the one behind number 5, are still intact, although most have been replaced informally by the occupants' garages.
