Description
No 30 High Street is a house that has been converted into a restaurant. It dates back to the 16th century, with 17th century extensions at the rear and a 19th century shopfront. The building features an exposed timber frame with plastered panels on the jettied front, dark weatherboarding on the south gable, and white weatherboarding on the rear wing. It has a steep old red tile roof, while the rear wing is now covered with slate.
The structure is two stories tall, with a jettied street range that has two unequal bays. There is a carriageway leading to a yard at the south end, which has a gabled rear extension above it, and a long rear wing that extends in two stages along the north boundary. The front has two windows with close-studding and curved tension-bracing above the jetty, supported by bull-nose joists and heavy curved brackets at each end. The windows are four-light early 18th century flush casements with leaded glazing and iron opening lights.
The shopfront features a central doorway and divided windows framed by reeded pilasters, with a stallriser made of raised and fielded panels. There are boarded double doors leading to the carriageway. A central chimney is located on the front slope against the south side of the central partition. The rear range includes Gothic cast-iron small-paned casement windows. Inside, the building has exposed timbers, heavy flat joists, shutter grooves above the two front upper windows, and a collar-purlin roof supported by square crown-posts and longitudinal curved braces.
