History
An apparently mid C19 building which may have earlier origins. It has been externally little altered since.
Exterior
The building is smooth rendered, probably over local rubble stone, with stucco dressings, and has a Welsh slate roof. It has two storeys and attic. The ground floor is wholly a contemporary shop with panelled stall-risers and a bracketted fascia. The shop windows are plate glass, with a canted central entrance. The first floor has two 2 over 2 pane sashes with moulded architraves; there is an additional one the same to the left, but this is a part of No 24 (qv). Bracketted timber eaves, plain roof with two flat topped dormers with 1 over 1 sashes. Rear elevation not seen.
Interior
Not inspected at time of resurvey.
Reason for designation
Included as a probably mid C19 house retaining significant historic character and having strong group value with the surrounding historic buildings in the centre of Caerleon.
