[3] The new building was designed by Henry Davies of Llanelli in the neoclassical style, built in rubble masonry at a cost of £300 and was completed in 1868.

[4][5] The original design involved a symmetrical main frontage of two bays facing onto Castle Street.

At the west end there was an external staircase leading up to a first-floor porch, formed by a pair of cast iron columns supporting an entablature, and there was a small Diocletian window in the gable above.

[1] In the late 19th century, the building was extended by one extra bay, slightly set back from the original structure, to the east in the same style.

[9] In 2017, the Loughor Town Trust confirmed that it was seeking funding to restore the building, and was considering options including residential, community and business uses.
