74 High Street, Newport

74 High Street in Newport is a late 18th-century house that has been converted into a shop on the ground floor. The building features painted stucco under a clay tile roof and has a rectangular plan with a narrow front elevation.

The structure is two storeys tall, plus an attic, and is one bay wide. The ground floor showcases a 20th-century shopfront, which includes a glazed door on either side of two glazed windows, set above a brick panel laid in stretcher bond. This shopfront is flanked by Doric pilasters with plain bases and fluted faces, supporting a frieze and cornice.

On the first floor, there is a centrally placed oriel window with three faces. The two narrow outer faces have two-over-two sash windows, while the front face features a single eight-over-eight sash window. There are plain strips between the inner and outer sashes, and the entire window is framed with thin, fluted Doric pilasters, a block cill, a narrow frieze, and a shallow cornice. The cornice of the bow window aligns with a stepped eaves cornice. The roof is steeply pitched and includes a modern skylight.

The west side elevation is gabled and features hung tile on the first floor. At the rear, there is a long, linear single-storey wing with a pitched roof.
