Architecture
The building is two storeys in height and is built from local, red bricks capped with a Welsh slate roof. On the Queen's street frontage it has a central 6-panel door under an oblong fanlight within a pilastered doorcase with projecting cornice. This main entrance is flanked by two additional doorways, each a 4-panel door beneath an oblong fanlight. There are sashed windows with sixteen panes on the ground floor and twenty-four panes on the first floor. Each window has a channelled and cambered stone lintel with a larger central keystone. Above the first floor windows are recessed brick panels. At the top of this frontage, there is a stepped brick cornice.[1] A stone plaque above the main door is carved with the words 'Assembly Rooms'. To the left of this is a blue plaque recording its construction as a Temperance Hall in 1843.
