48, High Street

No. 48 High Street is a shop built in the early 19th century. It features roughcast over a stucco plinth and has a grey gault brick face at the southern end, where it connects to the forecourt of The White House. The building has a low-pitched slate roof and is designed with a two-storey, double-pile plan, including a central chimney on both the front and rear roof slopes. The roof is hipped at the southern end to match No. 44.

The front elevation has wide eaves soffits and is two windows wide, with flush box sash windows that have moulded architraves and six-over-six panes. To the right of the windows is a half-glazed panelled door with a fanlight, flanked by plain pilasters and topped with a flat hood supported by cut brackets. The shopfront is small and contemporary, featuring moulded caps on the pilasters, a full entablature, a dentilled cornice, a divided window, and a similar half-glazed panelled door with a fanlight. This building is included for its group value.
