Description

Levant is a row of five houses built in the mid-19th century, with the first three displaying Regency architectural features. The houses are constructed from rendered stone and feature stone stacks and bracketed eaves, topped with slate roofs. Levant, Rhiwlas, and Brynllys are two storeys tall and also have basements, while Penlanfair and The Bakery have roofs at a lower level. Each house has a three-window front with painted sills.

Levant features an Ionic porch with a dentilled entablature. Rhiwlas and Brynllys have half-column doorcases with uniquely bulbous necks on the columns and plain entablatures. The doors of Levant and Rhiwlas are recessed with panelled reveals and radiating bar fanlights, while Brynllys has similar reveals but a rectangular traceried overlight. All three houses have well-crafted eight-panelled doors. The first floor windows of Levant, Rhiwlas, and Brynllys are twelve-pane sashes, and the ground floor windows are sixteen-pane sashes, except for Rhiwlas, which has sixteen-pane sashes on both floors. All three houses are enclosed by iron railings, with Levant featuring additional quatrefoil pierced mid-rail. Projecting stones on the left corner of Levant indicate that this row was originally intended to be longer.

Penlanfair is finished in painted roughcast with stucco dressings, featuring twelve-pane sashes, a six-panelled door, and a traceried rectangular fanlight. The openings have raised shouldered surrounds with keystones, and the façade is slightly offset to the left.

The Bakery is set forward compared to the other four houses and lacks visible stacks. It is also roughcast and has twelve-pane sashes, except for the ground floor left window, which is a former shop window with twenty panes. The Bakery features interior and exterior glazed doors with rectangular fanlights.
