Full Report for Listed Buildings
The list description is not intended to be a complete inventory of what is listed: it is principally intended to aid identification. By law, the definition of a listed building includes the entire building (i) and any structure or object that is fixed to the said building and ancillary to it and (ii) any other structure or object that forms part of the land and has done so since before 1 July 1948, and was within the curtilage of the building, and ancillary to it, on the date on which said building was first included in the list, or on 1 January 1969, whichever was later.
Date of Designation
16/11/1994
Date of Amendment
16/11/1994
Name of Property
14 Glynne Way
Unitary Authority
Flintshire
Location
Located immediately to the E of the castle entrance, opposite the Glynne Arms.
Exterior
An early C19, 2-storey terrace range of 14 cottages, each of one bay and with paired entrances. The main front of flush, uncoursed sandstone with tooled sandstone dressings. Continuous shallow-pitched slate roof with coped and shaped gable to the W. Plain eaves cornice. Contemporary twin square chimney stacks serving Nos 4 and 6, with moulded caps, off-set on a square base. All other stacks of dark factory brick and of octagonal design. Each cottage retains its contemporary door, of 3 vertical panels approached by 2 steps (mostly replaced). Plain chamfered
doorcases. No. 30 has a plain rectangular fanlight. No. 4 has a wide, flat-arched cellar light. Otherwise each unit has single aligned ground and first floor windows of 2 lights and 2 panes. Upper windows are slightly narrower than lower ones. All with plain chamfered lintels, cills and reveals; all cills now painted. No. 30 has a later 3-light, 6-pane ground floor window, with wooden, grained lintel (this relates to a late C19 remodelling as a saddlers' shop). W gable with stone mullioned windows to ground and first floor, of 3 and 2 lights respectively, each with moulded and returned label.
Except Nos 4-10, rear elevations are of red brick with dentilated eaves, and each cottage has a later rear extension. Nos 4 - 10 are of sandstone throughout, and a break can be detected between Nos 10 and 12. This suggests that Nos 4-10 were built first and that the terrace was subsequently continued to the same design. Presumably, however, the time gap between the original 4-unit construction and the additions to the E cannot of been long.
Reason for designation
Good group value in a prominent position within the village.
