Description

63B High Street is a cottage that has been converted into a café, dating from the late 18th century. The building features a timber-framed upper floor that is covered in white weatherboarding, while the ground floor is rendered brick. It has a plain tiled gabled roof.

The cottage is two storeys high and includes a ground-floor lean-to. The south-east elevation, which faces an alley, has a dormer with a catslide roof that breaks through the eaves line. This dormer contains four leaded lights with two cast-iron casements. On the first floor, there is a 20th-century two-light casement window with a cross glazing pattern. The ground floor lean-to has a felt roof and is clad in painted vertical boarding, featuring four Gothick lancet-light windows with coloured glass and a cusped fascia. The door, which has a hood supported by consoles, is now located within the lean-to. There is also a former horizontal-sliding casement window with four leaded lights.

Inside, the first floor retains 18th-century timber framing with some pegging and straight braces, arranged in two bays. The tie beam over the fireplace opening has a broad chamfer with ogee stops at the ends. The roof plate at the front is also chamfered at the window opening. A former stack at the north end has surviving fireplaces with mantel shelves on each floor, along with an iron range that includes a boiler. The alley beside the building is paved with stable paviours. A pane of glass inscribed with "1782 Hannah H..." is also present.
