Description

Nos. 6 and 8 High Street are houses dating from the 15th and 17th centuries. They have a timber frame, are rendered, and partially weatherboarded, topped with plain tiled roofs. A ridge stack from around 1840 and an early to mid-17th century narrow projecting gault brick side stack with offsets and three linked shafts set diagonally serve the building. The layout consists of a hall and a crosswing, with the hall featuring one storey and an attic, and two dormers. There is one hung sash window and a 20th-century shop front. A doorway possibly leads to a cross-passage between the hall and the crosswing. The crosswing jetties at the first floor and has two storeys, with one window on each storey, including an early 19th-century tripartite hung sash at the ground floor. The interior is believed to have originally been an open hall from the 15th century.
