88, High Street

No. 88 High Street is a house with origins in the early 18th century, which has been altered and extended in the 19th century. It is constructed of coursed squared stone with ashlar dressings and features a hipped Collyweston stone slate roof, along with ashlar ridge and end stacks. The building is two storeys high with attics and has a basic L-plan shape, characterized by a coped gable end facing the street supported by moulded kneelers.

On the front, there is a two-storey canted bay window from the 19th century, which contains sash windows, and a small attic window beneath a timber lintel above. The north side of the house has three 2-light casement dormers. To the south, the building is two windows wide and features 6/6 sash windows with projecting keystones, along with a dormer above. The entrance is located in a later 19th-century two-storey porch at the angle of the house, with a door that has a rectangular fanlight with glazing bars.

The south end of the house includes a two-storey early 19th-century bow window. The garden front has a similar projecting bow window, which was extended at ground floor level in the early 20th century, and a first-floor weatherboarded oriel. Inside, there are two late 19th-century fresco paintings in the front room on the ground floor, which was used as a chapel during the time the house served as St Mary's Diocesan Home, a penitentiary for reforming young women.
