Description
Nos. 64-72 Rockhill Road is a terrace of houses that step down the hill in pairs, with the first pair possibly including earlier work from the service wing of the 18th century Old Truck House. The terrace consists of two reflected pairs, with a single house at the end that was truncated due to the widening of Fountain Road, which used to be a tramway leading from 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 materials.
Each house is three storeys high and consists of a single bay. The ground floors have windows with a keyed head and arched doorways that include keystones and impost blocks. The upper floors feature windows set within tall arched recesses. Most of the window features have been replaced, with No. 64 having 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 mostly 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.
The interiors were not inspected during the resurvey conducted in December 1996.
