Description

This building comprises two properties on High Street, dating from the 19th century. The front is constructed of brick and tile hanging, with two gables concealing an older timber-framed structure. Painted corner fillets and bargeboards are present. The building is two storeys high with attic windows visible in the gable ends. It features square-paned leaded casement windows. A plain boarded door is located on the left-hand side, sheltered by an overhanging first floor. A projecting 19th-century porch is on the right. The rear elevation is clad with white-painted 18th-century weatherboarding. Properties 6A, 6B, 8, and 10 form a cohesive group.
