Description

Nos. 64-72 (even) Rockhill Road is a terrace of houses that step down the hill in pairs, with the first possibly including earlier work from the service wing of the 18th century Old Truck House. The terrace consists of two reflected pairs, and the single house at the end was truncated due to the widening of Fountain Road, which was formerly a tramway connecting the Pontymoile Tinplate Works to Lower Mill. The houses are rendered and mostly painted, likely over brick, and feature Welsh slate roofs, although several have been replaced with artificial substitutes.

Each house is three storeys high and consists of a single bay. The ground floors have a window with a keyed head and an arched doorway that includes a keystone and impost blocks. The upper floors have windows set within tall arched recesses. Most of the window features are modern replacements; No. 64 has six over six sash windows, while No. 72 appears to have two over two Victorian plate glass sashes. The roofs are plain, with two brick stacks serving the entire terrace.

The rear elevations are primarily unpainted render, except for No. 64, which is painted and has modern replacement windows. Nos. 68 and 70 have modern red brick single-storey extensions.

This house, No. 64, features six over six sash windows and a painted rear elevation. The interiors were not inspected during the resurvey in December 1996.
