Description
A close-up of the upper second floor parapet and mansard of 10 Bladud Buildings showing its deterioration over a long period. The façade includes various rainwater pipes and outlets from the parapet gutter. The condition of all the stonework is in advanced decay and mouldings, cornice brackets and the cornice probably need replacement. The stonework above the cornice is missing large ashlar block facings exposing the rubble stone interior. The copings also need repair. Various slates in the upper pitch of the mansard are detached and the paintwork on the dormer windows has entirely vanished. On the reverse notes. in blue biro: '10 Bladud Buildings' and '2/3/81'.
