Description
51 Clwyd Street is a two-storey house with three windows, featuring one-and-a-half storeys. The left-hand section of the house is built differently, with higher eaves and a lower ridge. The front is constructed from dressed coursed grey stone on a plinth, topped with a slate roof. There is a rendered and lined chimney stack to the right of the center and another stack to the left, which is likely shared with the adjacent property at 49. The ground floor openings have large stone lintels, while the upper storey windows are set beneath gabled half-dormers that feature light timber-framing. The entrance is located to the left of center and consists of a small-pane glazed wooden door. Flanking the entrance are three-light mullioned and transomed uPVC windows that have replaced wooden casements of a similar style. The upper storey windows mirror the lower ones, with a three-light window in the center and two-light windows on the outer sides. There is a rectangular vehicular through-passage on the far right, which leads to a long rear wing.
The rear wing is one-and-a-half storeys, rendered and modernized, with uPVC windows and raked dormers. It was constructed in several phases and includes a flat and garages with double boarded doors at the right end.
Inside, the entrance leads to a small stair-hall featuring a T-shaped staircase that goes to the rear, with slender turned balusters. Behind the staircase is an inserted partition, with the first-floor hall said to be beyond. The living room is to the right of the stair-hall and contains a continuous spine-beam with distinctive double hollow mouldings, supported on moulded capitals; this beam extends from the stair-hall. The living room features a large fireplace at the right end with a yoke-shaped timber lintel. Timber-framing has been discovered beneath the plaster, including in the rear right room. The room to the left of the stair-hall, part of the same range as 47-49, has a 17th-century ceiling with medium-chamfered cross- and spine-beams. To the left of the staircase is the entrance to a cellar, which features a large deep-chamfered post that has been slightly cut away for the cellar stairs, along with evidence of an earlier doorway. The kitchen at the north end of the rear wing has a spine-beam that has been boxed in due to damage sustained during its use as a butcher's shop. The upper storey was not seen but is said to retain windbraces of the open roof, which is now ceiled in the attic.
