Description
9 Short Bridge Street is a two-storey building with a pale red brick front, featuring stock brick dressings and a blue brick plinth. It has a proprietary slate roof that is slightly lower than the Royal Head, with boarded and dentil eaves and a modern brick chimney stack. The building mostly has horned sash windows, with a tripartite window to the right of No 7 and modern windows at No 9; some windows have cambered voussoirs.
No 7 has a two-window front that includes a Victorian shop front with a bracket cornice and implied grooved pilasters, a two-light window, panelled reveals, and four-panel doors for both the shop and the house. No 8 features a four-panel door, while No 9 has a modern door; both have one-window fronts.
The right end of the building, facing Chapel Street, has an asymmetrical gable that is stepped back at the apex; the upper part is red brick, while the lower front half is rubble, indicating the presence of an earlier, narrower structure. The rear of the building has a tall roof pitch with gabled cross ranges and some modernization. No 7 is slate hung and has a small pane sash window. In the yard behind, there is a tiny two-storey, one-window former weaver's cottage, made of red brick with small pane sash windows, which is the only one of its kind remaining in Llanidloes.
