History
This house is probably C17 in origin, the clue being the very low ratio of window to wall. It was remodelled in the early C19 and later given a small shopfront but externally it has been little altered since then.
Exterior
The front elevation is pebble-dashed, presumably over local rubble stone. Machine tile roof with red ridge tiles and red brick stacks. Double depth central entrance plan. Two storey front with a painted plinth, a mid C19 shop window with plate glass window with moulded cornice and a door adjoining on the left which is flanked by pilasters, and the shop window has another to the right, pebble-dash stall-riser. To the left of this is a 6 over 6 pane sash with an exposed case, and on the floor above are two more smaller sashes the same. Low pitch roof with a ridge stack at either end, both have been heightened in a different red brick. Rear elevation not seen.
Interior
Not inspected at time of resurvey.
Reason for designation
Included as a probably C17 house retaining significant historic character and having strong group value with the surrounding historic buildings in the centre of Caerleon.
