Description
No. 39 High Street is a house that dates from the early 19th century or earlier. It is timber framed, plastered, and has a slate roof. The building has a square plan facing southeast and features an axial stack. To the right, there are two two-storey lean-to extensions that connect it with No. 41. The front extension is roofed with handmade red plait tiles, while the rear extension has a slate roof.
The house stands two storeys tall. On the ground floor, there is an early 19th-century sash window with 12 lights, which has a band of applied ornament at the top. The first floor features two similar sash windows without ornamentation. The front elevation includes a door and doorcase from the 18th century; the door has six fielded panels with egg-and-dart borders. It is framed by a moulded and enriched architrave, topped with a dentilled canopy that has egg-and-dart ornamentation, supported by richly carved scrolled brackets. There are two stone steps leading up to the door, with wrought iron railings on each side, mainly from the 20th century, attached to the house and steps.
