Row of 3 houses with former weavers' garret over, now 2 houses with commercial premises above. c1830. Brick with Welsh slate roof. 3-storeyed, 4-window range. 3 doorways towards centre, the central doorway giving direct access to staircase serving upper floor only. 2-pane sash windows each side of doorways. Blocked doorway to left, with 16-pane sash window alongside. Upper windows are sashes of 2, 12 and 16-panes, all with flat-arched brick heads. Undivided garret floor lit by three 3-light long windows, formerly horizontally sliding sash windows but now renewed in original openings. Axial stacks. The building is of special interest as a rare example of a type of weaving workshop and terraced housing in which the weaving garret is not accessible via the houses themselves.
