Description

No 80 High Street is a mid-18th century house that was formerly known as 'The Anchor' inn. The building has two storeys and attics, constructed from local gault brick. It features a plain tile roof adorned with 17th-century patterned ridge tiles and two medieval ridge tiles depicting a ram and a bull. A square ridge stack is present on the roof.

On the first floor, there are three hung sash windows with glazing bars. An iron bracket for a pub sign is attached to the facade. The ground floor includes 19th-century architraved splayed shop windows that flank a half-glazed door, which is topped by a rectangular fanlight. To the east, there is a six-panelled house door set in a moulded wooden architrave, accompanied by a Venetian sash window with glazing bars in a flat-headed brick arch.

The ridge tiles may have been salvaged from buildings that were destroyed in the fire of 1731. The ram and bull motifs are also found on a 14th-century floor tile discovered in the abbey grounds and are part of the local folk history.
