Description

No 83 on High Street is an early 19th-century building made of gault brick and stands two stories tall. It features a slate roof that is set behind a stone-capped parapet. The first floor has three sash windows with glazing bars, which are framed by architrave surrounds and sit beneath cornices. The lower parts of the ground floor windows have lost their glazing bars. A six-panel door is located beneath a heavy bracketed cornice, set in plain reveals.
