Description
No. 117 High Street is a cottage that dates from the 18th or 19th century and is one of a pair with No. 113. The building is timber framed and rough rendered, with weatherboarding on the right side. It features a double range design with a hipped red plain tile roof and projecting eaves. The cottage is two storeys tall and has a frontage to High Street that includes two Gothic head casement windows on the first floor and two Gothic head windows with two lights on the ground floor. The left side of the cottage has a matching three-window range, although two of these windows are blocked. A central six-panel door is topped by a Gothic light, and there is a metal and wood trellis porch with a hood above. The front is covered with trellis, and the cottage is capped with three tall red brick chimney stacks.
