Every few buildings in Gwydir Street were built by a different builder (see history of Gwydir Street). This means that instead of all the buildings being the same, there are lots of different small features. If you get a chance to walk down Gwydir Street, see if you can spot where these are!
This clock on the left should be easy to find. It's a well known landmark of Gwydir Street.
Many windows have motifs over them, usually fleur de lis, but they can be subtly different from each other.
Door scrapers remind us of the times when the streets must have been muddy!
Most of Gwydir Street was built in plain brick, although some of them have since been rendered in various ways. There are a few patterns in red brick.
The Victorians loved ornament and even such simple worker cottages as Gwydir Street have a wide variety of lintels and arches above the doors and windows.
Nearly all of Gwydir Street is Victorian, but sometimes the modern buildings have made a good effort to fit in. On the left is an attractive arch above a door, copying Victorian designs. This house was built fairly recently.
There are modern features, too!
