Description

Plaid Cymru is a terraced group of Georgian buildings dating from the 18th century. They are three stories tall, with No 36 featuring a basement and attic. The buildings have two-window scribed stucco fronts, with bracketed cills on Nos 32 and 36. They are topped with slate roofs, wide bracket eaves, and have brick and rendered chimney stacks. No 36 has a modern attic with small pane windows. The windows include 9 and 15-pane sash windows, and the ground floor of Nos 32 and 36 features tripartite windows. These two buildings have tall narrow doorcases with Egyptian panelled pilasters and panelled reveals, topped with fanlights over six-panel doors. No 34 has a Victorian shop front with gabled fascia ends and part fluted pilasters; the lower sections have infill, with the left side glazed and the right side tiled. The shop entrance is offset to the right, while the entrance to No 34a is on the left and retains a display cabinet.
