22 and 24, High Street

Nos. 22 and 24 on High Street are two houses built as one in the early or mid 16th century, with significant alterations made in the 18th and 19th centuries. The buildings are two storeys high, constructed with a timber frame and rough-cast exterior. They feature a plain tiled roof with a 19th-century end chimney made of red brick. No. 24 includes a 19th-century shop window with large panes, while No. 22 boasts an impressive entrance doorway typical of the 18th century, complete with a moulded and eared architrave and a heavy moulded cornice, leading to a recessed 20th-century flush door. During alterations, a long-wall jetty at the left end of No. 24 was uncovered, revealing massive floor joists that support a moulded bressumer. The buildings also display close-studwork with tension stud-bracing and an altered 16th-century coupled-rafter roof.
