Listed building

The following is from Cadw's Listed Buildings database

Alongside the Bethel Ministry Chapel.

The pair of houses may be late C18 in origin, but exterior detail is largely the result of a mid C19 remodelling. Well coursed and squared local stone, with slate roof; stone axial stacks set to rear. 3 storeys, each a single unit, double pile plan (the rear elevations were originally of less height, and were raised in brick). Outer entrance at either side: doorway to No 40 renewed, but No 42 retains original opening with overlight, and stone lintel enriched with a central rosette. Flanking windows are 8-pane horned sashes.

The houses are of special interest as good, well-preserved examples of vernacular town houses using local materials.
