Description

The Cardiff Arms Public House and its attached wing is a late Victorian building constructed from red brick with render, brick, and terracotta dressings, painted yellow. The rear gable end is made of stone, and it features a slate roof adorned with decorative ridge tiles and three gabled dormers.

The building has a four-bay frontage facing New Market Street, with a curved corner bay and two additional bays on Bridge Street. The New Market Street side includes two dormers with small-pane upper sash windows supported by large scrolled side brackets. The first floor showcases three segmental-headed margin glazed sash windows with moulded painted surrounds and large decorative quatrefoil panels between them, all framed by decorative moulded string courses above and below. The ground floor features round-arched windows with painted surrounds and keystones, another quatrefoil panel, and bar windows with etched glass. There is a doorway located to the centre left, which has a plain fanlight and double panelled doors. The building has a painted plinth.

The corner bay is notable for its very tall tiered tower-like parapet, which is scrolled at the sides, and it has a wide recessed panel displaying a painted inn sign at the first floor level, while the ground floor remains blank. The Bridge Street elevation mirrors the New Market Street design, featuring one dormer, a two-window first floor range, a ground floor window, and a second door.

Attached to the side of the New Market Street frontage is a single-storey shed range built of limewashed rubble with a slate roof. This shed has central double doors with a painted sign reading 'Cardiff Arms' above, and a window has been inserted to the right, which was previously a smithy.
