No 9 has exposed stone front with Caerbwdy stone cut voussoirs to windows, replacing original brick, and modern attic window with similar glazing bar pattern in plastic. Nos 11 and 13 are stuccoed, but No 11 has raised gabled surrounds (as on No 7) to openings of ground floor and No 13 has keyblocks over all windows. No 11 has lost traceried overlight. Rear rubble stone 4-storey elevations with brick window heads and stuccoed 2-storey additions.
