Description

15 and 16 Crescent Street and 10 Union Court in Penygloddfa, Newtown, are three-storey buildings with a cellar, originally designed as back-to-back houses, of which No. 10 Union Court still exists. The front is constructed of Flemish bond brick, while the rear is slate hung. The roof is gently pitched with old slate and features a lead ridge. Both the front and back have deep boarded eaves, and there is a central brick stack set diagonally. Each storey has two widely spaced windows, with the second-floor windows under the eaves featuring shallow 8-pane sashes. The first and ground floors have 16-pane sashes, all with plain reveals, stone lintels, and sills, along with cellar openings below. The front showcases paired ornate timber porches with pierced fretwork patterns and panelled sides, topped with swept lead roofs and slate bases. Inside, there are benches and original six-panel doors. The rear elevation, which is well-preserved, is slate hung and features small paned iron-framed windows, with the second floor being shallow. The deep eaves are a notable feature.
