61 And 63, High Street

This is a late 19th-century "Gothick" villa, designed by William Beck. It is constructed of red Flemish bond brickwork with stone and gault brick dressings, and has a gabled roof covered in decorative clay pantiles with a crested ridge. The building has two storeys with attics, and three large red brick stacks with linked octagonal shafts.

The front elevation, facing High Street, has a projecting gable with carved and cusped bargeboards. This gable features an attic window with a stone surround containing two lights, a pointed relieving arch, and a stone trefoiled spandrel block. Below, the first floor has a similar three-light window with a stone surround. A stone moulded string band runs around the building at first-floor height. The ground floor of the projecting wing has two two-light windows with stone surrounds, pointed arches, and stone cusping in the spandrels. There are iron grilles over a four-light basement window. The recessed section of the front elevation, to the north, has a gabled dormer with decorative bargeboards extending vertically from the front wall. A window is positioned in the attic of the projecting wing, and the first floor has two two-light windows and a single light. The ground floor has a pointed stone arched doorway with a glazed, stone quatrefoil in the spandrel. The contemporary door is boarded and has strap hinges. Six stone steps lead to the doorway, accompanied by a stone balustrade.

A canted stone bay window, with a stone hipped roof, rises from the ground floor, featuring a four-light basement window and iron Gothick railings. A recessed elevation to the north of the front wing contains a single arched window to the first floor, positioned above a pointed arched stone door surround, six stone steps, and a stone balustrade incorporating a bootscraper. A boarded door, with strap hinges, completes this entrance. Single light windows are located in the south flank of the projecting wing. The exposed south flank elevation features a gabled two-light attic window, one two-light window, and a small single light window on the first floor. The ground floor has an entrance door within a stone surround, a flat stone lintel, a rectangular fanlight, and a door with two glazed panels featuring coloured glass. Two tall single light windows are also present.

The rear elevation is similar in character, with two timber-framed gabled corners, a flat-roofed 20th-century rear extension, and a modern conservatory.

The interior retains moulded cornices and a staircase with moulded newel posts and stick balusters.
