History

Second-quarter C19 2-storey terrace of quarry workers' cottages in simple village vernacular style.

Exterior

Belongs to a group of 9.

Nos 1-9 (consec) Gwynant Street.

Of roughly-squared stone blocks under a continuous slate roof with tiled ridge and plain, shared chimneys. A masonry break, indicating different building campaigns, is visible between nos 2 and 3, and between nos 8 and 9. The latter cottage is a 2-window unit with central entrance; the remaining cottages are single window units arranged as reflected pairs, with alternating paired inner doors and windows. All the doors are C20, mostly modern. Of the ground floor windows, that to no 6 (Hebog) is a 12-pane sash, whilst nos 2, 4, 7 and 9 have later C19 plain sashes. All save nos 1 and 2 have returned slate labels and slate lintels to their ground floor window. Of the upper windows, nos 2, 7 and 9 retain their original C19 9-pane sashes under the eaves and no 6 has a 12-pane sash; the remainder are modern.
