8 Lower Canal Road

8 Lower Canal Road is a two-storey, asymmetric terrace building located in Newtown. The terrace consists of Nos 4, 5, and 8, which each have one window, while Nos 6 and 7 feature symmetrical two-window fronts. The building is constructed of English garden wall bond brick, which is painted on the front, and has a gently pitched slate roof with a saw-toothed eaves cornice and brick stacks.

The first-floor windows have two-light casements positioned below the eaves, while the ground floor features broader two-light small-paned casement windows. The windows are adorned with cambered header arches and plain reveals. There are later 19th-century timber porches with gabled fishscale slate roofs, bargeboards, finials, and panelled sides. Nos 5, 7, and 8 have later brick plinths, and Nos 4 and 5 have 19th-century doors.

The upper portions of the end elevations are slate hung, and there is a cross wing at the rear of No 5. The building has contemporary but modern windows, with slate hanging on the west side. Additionally, there is a yard that encloses a wash-house and latrines at the rear of No 4.
