11, High Baxter Street

No. 11 High Baxter Street is a house with a 17th century core and later 18th and 19th century exterior features. The building is timber-framed, with parts roughcast and brick-faced. The upper storey has square roughcast panels, while the lower storey is painted brick. It has a plaintiled roof with a moulded timber eaves cornice. The house likely originally had a jettied front and south gable, as indicated by a bulge along the gable wall that aligns with the top of the brickwork, suggesting it may have supported a jetty. It now stands alone, the last remaining building from a former row on the east side of High Baxter Street.

The house is two storeys with attics and features a two-window range of sashes, each with a single vertical glazing bar in flush cased frames. There are two gabled dormers on the front slope of the roof, each with plain bargeboards and spike finials, containing small-paned two-light casement windows. The rear slope also has two dormers. The entrance door is off centre, set in a plain wood doorcase with a flat cornice hood. At the north end, the chimney stack is made of Tudor bricks.

Inside, the ground floor has plain main cross-beams exposed, and in one upper room, the wall plates and main beams are also visible. The timbers are plain with chamfers. The roof was renewed in the 18th century, during which an extension at the rear widened the building.
