Description
8 Cambrian Place is an 18th-century building of three stories and a basement, originally consisting of individual red brick frontages, although the brickwork has been patched. The basements are constructed from coursed rubble. The roof is slate, hipped at the right end, with simple chimney stacks, and features brick headers at the eaves on the left side.
The building has two windows per floor. The windows have gauged brickwork voussoirs, and the first floor features tall arched recesses containing modern canopied windows set within cantilevered balconies. These are positioned centrally to the left side, with narrow windows on either side. The ground floor windows are bipartites. The windows are largely fitted with large-pane sash glazing, which has been renewed. The doorcases have offset, pilastered surrounds, ornamented with key pattern friezes, projecting hoods, panelled reveals, and traceried fanlights above six-panel doors, with steps leading up to them. Basement areas are accessed via plain ironwork railings and steps.
A roughcast side elevation faces the River Tawe, and the rear elevation has been modernised.
