Description
No. 16 High Street is a house that has been converted into a shop, dating from around 1700. It features a hipped tiled roof and three square dormers with glazing bar sashes. The building has a moulded dentil eaves cornice and brick walls that include a band at the first floor and a rendered plinth. It stands two storeys tall, with an attic and a cellar. There are six glazing bar sashes with exposed box frames, although the two on the ground floor to the right are 20th-century replicas. The central door is framed by a doorcase with engaged columns that have fluted necks and an exaggerated entasis, topped by a semi-circular fanlight set between a broken frieze and an open pediment.
