1 Velindre

House, painted stucco or roughcast, now divided into three dwellings numbered 1 to 3 Velindre. A two-storey terrace-like long range of nine bays, with the bays divided as follows: two bays to No 1, three to No 2, and four to No 3. Slate roofs throughout.

No 1 has a wing with canted end running east from the rear north end. End chimneys mark each section, constructed in yellow and black brick (later 19th century to No 1) and 20th century red brick to No 3. The first floor features nine 16-pane sashes running the entire length; the third window of No 2 is set considerably lower and sits within a wider bay, marking a division between the main house and service range. The ground floor has floor-length 20-pane sashes to the main rooms, one to the left of No 1 and two in the left two bays of No 2, which has a door (not aligned with the window above) in the third bay. No 3 has a small 12-pane sash, then a large square 20-pane sash formerly lighting the kitchen, followed by a 20th century door with overlight, and finally another 12-pane sash. A 20th century lean-to is positioned on the right end wall with an original small 6-pane window above to the left and a boxed-out window to the right with sloping roof, set in the angle to a lower two-storey rear wing. This rear wing has two upper windows and a door between them, not aligned.

No 2 has a hipped-roofed parallel rear range. The north side of No 1 features a rear wing with a slate-hung tall side-wall stack, two first-floor 12-pane sashes above a 20th century lean-to, and an entrance door to the right. This door is original early 19th century, a 6-panel design with radiating-bar fanlight set in a panelled reveal. The east end is canted with a hipped roof, displaying three 12-pane sashes above and three full-length 15-pane sashes below.

The interiors of No 1 are of fine quality, dating to around 1840 and displaying late Regency detailing. The entrance hall features a stair to the left at the far end and two principal ground-floor rooms, one facing east with a canted bay and one facing west. The doors are 6-panel with sunk panels and planted thin mouldings, with matching shutters. The doorcases are particularly fine, featuring either panelled surrounds with horizontal fluting or reeded elements to half-round profile, with square blocks at upper angles bearing varied patterns; window reveals match this detailing. The hall contains a fine elliptical arch with panelled reveals. The hardwood staircase has broad treads, an open well, stick balusters with delicate ramped rail scrolled at the foot with an inlaid octagon motif, and scrolled tread ends. A doorway at the foot of the stair formerly opened into the spine passage of No 2.

The north-east former dining room is a long room with canted end, featuring a reeded ceiling border with rosettes on squares, a large elliptical-arched sideboard recess on the south wall in a moulded surround with reeding and rosettes, and panelled soffit to the arch. A fireplace on the north wall has a plain marble hearth and painted timber surround. Panelled shutters serve the long east windows. The north-west drawing room has a smaller reeded ceiling border with rosettes and two arched recesses on the south wall with panelled soffits in reeded surrounds. The doorcase into the hall has a reeded surround with reeding to half-round profiles. The kitchen contains a stone hearth and bricked-up chimney in the north wall, obscured by modern units.

The first-floor landing has a low ceiling with shallow elliptical arch to the west and panelled doors to bedrooms. The north-east room has an octagonal domed ceiling with sides deeply coved around a flat centrepiece and narrow flat borders around the dome. Reeded raised ribs divide sections of the cove and outline edges, with leaf bosses at intersections. The centrepiece has a ring of eight flat circles around an octagon, each bordered with thin string-like moulding. Doorcases have square upper corner blocks, as do triple windows at the east end. The fireplace has reeded pilasters with oval rosettes above and a raised panel with two ovals in the centre, plus a 19th century grate with coloured tile sides. The north bedroom is rectangular with deeply coved ceiling. It has a reeded small chimneypiece with plain centre and angle blocks. The north-west bedroom has a square domed ceiling, deeply coved with flat centre panel and thin moulded border to the centre and cornice.
