40 And 42, High Street

This is a house, now with two shops, dating to the 17th and early to mid-18th centuries. The building is constructed of coursed stone with a stone slate roof. It has two storeys and five windows on the first floor, along with a 17th-century rear wing. Raised quoins are visible on the front facade. The ground floor features 20th-century doors and shop fronts, set beneath a moulded stringcourse. The first-floor windows have moulded surrounds with raised cills, and contain 20th-century glazing. A moulded eaves cornice runs along the top of the building. The end stacks have been reduced in height. The rear wing includes double-chamfered mullion windows.
