11, High Street

No. 11 High Street is a building that originally dates back to the 15th century, with alterations made in the 19th century. It is constructed with a timber frame and rendered exterior, topped with a plain tile roof. The building has a right-angle plan, featuring a hipped roof at the front and a gabled roof at the rear, with a large stack positioned off-centre at the back. There is a long, two-storey rear range that also has a gabled plain tile roof and rendered walls.

The exterior of the building stands three storeys high and has a single-window range. The front features a plain rendered parapet and a painted moulded-timber cornice. On the second floor, there is a central two-light plain casement window, which is partly false due to the roof of Nos. 13 and 13A running behind a 'screen wall'. The first floor showcases a central canted bay window with a flat top and sash windows, the front one of which includes a central vertical glazing bar. A 20th-century hanging sign is mounted on a wrought-iron bracket. The ground floor has a continuous fascia cornice supported by six simple pilasters, with coupled pairs on either side of the central canted bay window, which features plate glass and a transom. To the left of the bay, there is a plate-glass window with a moulded band, possibly a remnant of an old door opening. The current door opening is located to the right of the bay and has a similar band beneath a fanlight. A large stack rises from the rear wing near the junction with the front range, and there are likely remains of a three-storey gate tower that once provided access to the rear of the complex at Nos. 13 and 13A.

Inside, the second floor reveals exposed timber-framing consisting of two unequal bays, featuring unjowled posts, a cambered tie beam, and widely spaced studs. The south-west wall has curved wall-bracing visible on the inside. The first floor also has some exposed framing, indicating that the north-east part was once part of the adjoining building (Nos. 13 and 13A). This area has heavy-section floor joists without a central spine beam, and there is a former window in the front wall that likely had two lights with foliated arched heads. The three-storey structure appears to have been built at the same time as Nos. 13 and 13A, matching them exactly in depth. At the rear of the front block, there is an open-well staircase from around 1800, featuring Chinese Chippendale handrails.
