Description

Nos. 1 and 3 Glendower Street are double depth houses built in red brick using English bond, with No. 3 being rendered and painted. They feature concrete interlocking tiled roofs and brick stacks, while the rear slope is covered with Welsh slate. The houses are three storeys tall, with the upper storey being shorter in height. There is a band at the first and second floors. Each house has three windows in segmental arched openings, arranged in a 2 + 1 pattern, with the wider bay on the right side for both houses. The lower floors have six over six pane sash windows, except for one ground floor window on the right of No. 1, which is a 3 + 3 pane casement, and on the left of No. 3, which is a late 20th century eight over eight pane sash. The top floor windows are six over three pane sashes. Both houses have six-panel doors with transoms above; No. 1 has raised and fielded panels, while No. 3 features glazed upper panels on the door. The steeply pitched roof has two large ridge stacks and additional minor stacks on the gables.

The rear elevation displays a variety of windows, including six over six pane sashes, three over three, some casements, and a large three-light window in the Drawing Room of No. 1. No. 3 includes a full height hipped roof wing.

Inside, the entrance hall is located on the left, with the staircase running parallel to the front wall. The staircase features straight flights, a closed string, turned balusters, and a moulded pine handrail. The through Drawing Room on the first floor was remodelled around 1830, featuring a black marble fireplace surround and plain plasterwork. The top floor was not seen.
