Old Market House (Second Thoughts)

An early C18 market house of two storeys. The ground floor, presumably once open, is entirely modern with a glass and aluminium shopfront, above is rendered and painted, with a Welsh slate roof. The first floor has a pediment/gable with a central window on the left, and an additional window to the right. Both windows are plain six over nine early C19 sashes, except the bottom six panes of the lower sash are now one pane. The tall narrow proportions of the openings suggest that these are unchanged and that they originally had cross-framed casements. The left hand window is flanked by inscription panels on brackets and with pedimented heads. These carry inscriptions in English on the left and Welsh on the right. Above this window is a moulded plaster diamond. Timber modillion cornice, plain roof. Rear elevation has a projecting two storey hipped roof block at lower level. This could be a later addition. Two blind windows on the upper floor, door and plain window on side elevation.

Interior not seen at time of resurvey (October 1996) except for the ground floor which is very altered.
