Description
28 and 29 High Street is a house that now includes a pair of shops. It was built in the early to mid-18th century, with some alterations made to the ground floor in the mid to late 19th century. The building is constructed of red brick and has a plain tile roof with raised verges, a brick ridge stack, and an integral end stack. It stands two storeys high and features a parapet cornice and a plain coped parapet. The facade has a symmetrical arrangement of 2:2:2 bays, with a central pedimented break that includes a keyed oculus in the pediment. The first floor is adorned with glazing bar sash windows that have decorative plaster lintels and reeded keys. Flanking the central entrance, which consists of a six-panel door approached by a short flight of steps, are a pair of glazing bar sashes with semi-circular heads. The entrance is framed by engaged columns with palmette capitals, a pediment, and a rectangular overlight with patterned glazing bars. On either side of this central feature are five-bay Victorian shop fronts that include console brackets, central recessed doors, and window lights with semi-circular heads.
Inside, the front door leads to an entrance hall with decorative plaster walls featuring large panels with egg and dart moulded surrounds and a moulded cornice. There is a fireplace with a scrolled frieze and a dentilled mantelpiece. The other front rooms, two on the ground floor and three on the first floor, each have a decorative plaster cornice. An early 19th-century dog leg staircase with stick balusters and a carved open string connects the floors. Several 18th-century panelled doors are also present throughout the interior.
