Description

No. 5 Porthycarne Street is a Georgian-fronted town house, attached to buildings on either side. It features roughcast render that is painted, along with a shallow-pitched slate roof that has overhanging eaves and narrow corniced brick end stacks. The house is two storeys tall and has a symmetrical frontage with a three-window range of 12-pane sash windows in reveals, which have narrow glazing bars and shallow sills on the first floor. The ground floor has similar windows on either side of a central doorway. This doorway is framed by a pediment doorcase with narrow side pilasters, panelled reveals, a recessed six-panelled door, and a margin-glazed overlight. The property is enclosed by iron railings on a stone kerb, which feature scrolled and urn finials, and double gates that connect with the railings of numbers 3 and 7.
