Description
Cambrian House is a two-storey building with a cellar, featuring three windows. The front and left end are finished in pebbledash, while the taller building that used to be attached on the right has been removed. The rear elevation is slate hung, and the roof is pitched with slate tiles, deep boarded eaves, and bargeboards on the left side. There are brick stacks with renewed caps. The first-floor windows have shallow upper sashes with nine panes, and the ground floor windows are twelve-pane sashes with plain reveals and stone sills. A late trellis work lean-to porch sits on a brick base, leading to a panelled door with a rectangular fanlight.
The rear elevations are also slate hung, featuring a tall, narrow sash window for the stairs. To the left, there is a small four-pane window located below the eaves, and to the right, a larger two-light window with small panes in a wooden frame. There is a cross window on the lower left, with the cames removed. On the left side, there is a two-storey brick lean-to, along with a corrugated iron outshut.
