Swan House with Left Return to Number 9 High Street

This is an 18th-century house built for Richard Rigby. It is likely constructed of plastered brick, with a hipped red tiled roof and a rear red brick chimney stack. The house has two storeys, attics, and a basement. A dormer window is visible on the left return side, facing the High Street. The façade features three small-paned vertically sliding sash windows on the first floor. On the ground floor, there are hipped red tiled bay windows to the right and left. A central four-panel door has reveal panels, a moulded surround, frieze, and a flat canopy. Steps on the right return lead from the ground floor to the basement. Interior features include stop-chamfered bridging joists, an 18th-century panelled room with window seats, and vertically boarded walls to the basement kitchen. Other details include fret ventilators to the stair cupboard, vertically boarded doors, a cast iron grate with a Delft tiled surround in a bedroom fireplace, and a cast iron fire surround in the attic. The house is part of the village built by Richard Rigby in the late 18th century.
