Description

The Denbighshire Free Press offices are a three-and-a-half storey gabled building with two bays. It is constructed of brick, with timber-framed origins, and features a slate roof. The building has stone quoins and projecting keystones, all of which are painted, and it has ashlared stucco covering the brick. The ground floor includes modern shop windows, while the upper floors jettied out over the pavement and are supported by three Tuscan stone columns. Each of the first and second floors has two recessed Victorian four-pane sash windows, and there is a smaller, similar sash window in the attic floor above. The interior was not inspected during the survey.
