8 Commercial Street

8 and 9 Commercial Street in Penygloddga, Newtown, are three-storey buildings that form a mirrored pair, constructed from roughcast brick. The gently pitched slate roof on No 8 is new, while both buildings feature a saw-toothed eaves cornice, plain bargeboards, and a central brick chimney stack. The second floor has shallow eight-pane hopper windows, while No 9 retains original sixteen-pane sash windows on the first and ground floors. No 8 has modern windows and cement architraves, with stone sills present on both buildings. A small lead-camed window with bulls-eye glass is located on the second floor rear of No 9. The original doorcase of No 9 includes a bracketed, leaded drip-board and an original six-panel door, while No 8 has a modern door. Both buildings have reflected staircases with plain iron handrails leading up to their doorways.
