Description
No. 9 High Street is an estate office and lodge house, later used as council offices and now functioning as offices. It was built in the later 19th century for the Rothschild family, likely designed by William Huckvale. The building features a red brick ground floor with a stone plinth band and scalloped red tile hanging on the first floor. The gables are half-timbered with painted roughcast panels, and the steep roofs are covered with old red tiles. Tall red brick chimneys with pilasters rise from the structure.
The building is two storeys high with attics, facing north onto the street, and the eastern part is designed as a separate building. It has four windows across the front, each with two-light casements beneath four gables that are linked by pierced bargeboards. A moulded cornice projects over four elaborate oriel windows, each featuring a triangular projecting centre. The ground floor has four 4-light casement windows with flat hoods supported by shaped brackets. A four-centred moulded stone archway with a square hood mould sits between the eastern pair of windows, leading to a door that is accessed by four steps. The building is included for its group value.
