Built in 1828 and first shown on the 1834 town map as part of Segontium Terrace and terminating the terrace comprising Nos 11-19.
A Georgian house of 3 storeys, of pebble-dashed walls with channelled quoin strips, and hipped slate roof. The entrance is in the 2-bay New Street elevation where openings are offset to the R side. A central round-headed doorway has rusticated pilasters, a round arch on lion's head corbels, and keystone. A replaced panelled door is beneath an original radial-glazed fanlight. Windows are replaced in original openings to the New Street and also to the 2-bay Segontium Terrace elevation, all with late C19 lugged architraves and keystones.
The Segontium Terrace elevation has forecourt iron railings on a dwarf freestone wall, with pointed finials and cone finials to the corner stanchions. A plain gate to the basement steps is to the R.
Listed with 11-19 Segontium Terrace as an ambitious urban development prominently sited above Slate Quay. Notwithstanding some loss of its original unified design, the terrace contributes to the strong Georgian tradition in Caernarfon and documents the growing prosperity of the town in the early C19 in the wake of the development of Caernarfon as a major N Wales port.
