Description

No. 21 High Street is a house that has been converted into a house and shop. It was built in the late 18th century and altered in the 19th century. The building is made of red brick in Flemish bond, with an ashlar plinth and a Welsh slate roof. It features a right-hand gable stack, an ogee gutter, and a dentilled frieze.

The exterior consists of three storeys plus attics, with a two-bay front. The 19th-century shop front includes a central three-light shop window and canted recessed doorways on either side. The doors have flush panels, with flush panelled reveals and overlights. On the first floor, there are two 16-pane glazing bar sash windows, and on the second floor, there are two 12-pane glazing bar sash windows. All openings are topped with splayed rubbed brick arches. The roof features a two-light dormer with slate-hung cheeks and a lead roof. The interior has not been inspected.
