Description

No. 76 High Street is a house from the early 18th century, possibly with earlier origins at the rear, and has undergone minor alterations in the 19th century. The building is constructed of render and red brick, featuring pantile and slate roofs, with brick coped gables and rear brick stacks.

The exterior is two stories high with a five-bay front, including a cellar, a first-floor band, and dog-tooth eaves. The central entrance consists of a six-panel door accessed by two steps, framed by a narrow pilastered doorcase and flanked by pairs of plain sash windows. The first floor has five similar windows. At the rear, there is a lower 18th-century range with a part-tumbled gable and single-storey wings that are cased in 19th-century brickwork.

Inside, the house retains panelled doors and full-height panelling in the right-hand ground floor room. The roof features staggered butt purlins. A single-storey rear kitchen includes a large chimneypiece and stack, as well as an exposed roof structure that may be a remnant of an earlier phase.
