143 High Street

143 High Street is a former terraced shop, now used as offices, built around the late 18th century with alterations made in the mid-20th century.

The building is faced in purple-grey brick with red brick dressings and has slate roof coverings. It has a rectangular plan and stands three storeys high with a shopfront on the ground floor and offices above.

The exterior features three bays and fronts directly onto the High Street. The bricks are laid in header bond, with red brick window dressings, flat arch lintels above the windows, and decorative brick quoins. The ground floor shopfront consists of three bays separated by fluted Doric pilasters. The two western bays have glazed double doors flanked by plate glass shop windows, while the eastern bay has a tiled porch leading to a six-panelled door providing access to the offices above. A fascia panel for shop signage runs across the top of the ground floor.

On the first floor, there are two rectangular timber oriel windows flanking a central, narrow blind (blocked) window opening with a stone cill. The side faces of the oriel windows contain two-over-two sashes, while the front face features a pair of six-over-six sashes, separated by plain strips and bordered by a panelled apron, plain frieze, and cornice. The second floor has three recessed sash windows with stone cills; the first and third bays have eight-over-eight sashes, and the central bay has a six-over-six sash. Above the second floor, there is a wooden eaves cornice. The building has a gabled roof covered in slates, with two brick chimney stacks at each end. The west gable end displays a 19th-century painted shop sign that reads: 'SELF pastry cook. THE NOTED PIE SHOP'.
