Description
6 Cambrian Place is an individual three-storey building with a basement, featuring red brick fronts that have been patched, and coursed rubble basements. The building has a continuous slate roof that is hipped at the right end, with plain dividing chimney stacks and some brick headers at the eaves on the left side.
The front facade includes two windows on each floor, with gauged brickwork voussoirs and tall arched recesses for modern canopied triplet balconies that are cantilevered on the first floor. The centre left houses have narrow flanking windows, while the ground floor features bipartite windows. Most of the glazing is large-pane sash windows, which have been renewed. The entrance has offset pilastered doorcases with key pattern friezes, narrow hoods, panelled reveals, and traceried fanlights above six-panel doors, with steps leading up to the entrance. The basement areas are enclosed with plain ironwork railings and have steps leading down.
The side elevation facing the River Tawe is roughcast with two windows, and the rear elevation has been modernised.
