Description
This is an early 19th-century building on the south side of High Street. It is constructed of brick and features a flood eaves cornice. The building originally had two windows, each with flat arches constructed of gauged brick and glazing bars. The ground floor has been altered to create a modern shop. It is part of a group that includes numbers 20, 24 to 28 (even), and The Grapes Inn.
