Description
7 Cambrian Place is an individual three-storey building with a basement, featuring red brick fronts that have been patched. The basements are made of coursed rubble, and the building has a continuous slate roof that is hipped at the right end. There are 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 above. The first floor has tall arched recesses that accommodate modern canopied triplet balconies, which are cantilevered and flanked by narrow windows. The ground floor has bipartite windows. Most of the glazing consists of large-pane sash windows that have been renewed. The doorways are offset and feature pilastered doorcases with key pattern friezes, narrow hoods, panelled reveals, and traceried fanlights above six-panel doors, with steps leading up to them. The basement areas are enclosed with plain ironwork railings and have steps leading down.
The side elevation facing the River Tawe is roughcast and has two windows, while the rear elevation has been modernised.
