Early to mid C18 single room two storey cottage located near to the church of St Mary fronting onto the upper end of the High Street, the main road leading out of Mold to the north.

The upper window is a 6+6 pane horizontally sliding sash the lower is a 12 light fixed window with central mullion (a modern replacement). The door is four panelled, the taller upper two panels have been glazed and the lower two are raised and fielded. The left hand gable and rear elevations are also smooth rendered and a single storey wall flanks the return down Clayton Road.
Reason for designation
Included as a well preserved single unit urban vernacular cottage, an unusual and early example of the type.
