12 and 14, High Street

Two houses, numbers 12 and 14 High Street, were built around 1765 to 1770. They are constructed of limestone ashlar to the front, with rubble to the rear, and have a double-gabled concrete tile roof and brick rear stacks. The houses have a double-depth plan, arranged over two storeys and containing an attic. The front is symmetrical with a five-window range. Wrought-iron brackets support flat hoods over the 18th-century six-panelled doors with overlights in the centre. The windows are 6-pane sashes with cambered arches. A raised storey band runs along the front, and there are hipped roof dormers with 3-pane sashes. The rear features wrought-iron brackets supporting flat hoods over two 19th-century half-glazed doors, as well as 2-light casements and two 6-pane sashes. There are also one-storey service ranges with artificial stone slate roofs.

The interior of number 14 features late 18th-century panelled doors and a dog-leg staircase with a closed string and slender turned balusters. A room on the left has an early 19th-century marble fireplace and a plank dado, while a room on the right has a late 18th-century moulded stone fireplace with a 19th-century grate and plank dado. Number 12 was not inspected but is likely to contain features of similar interest. The buildings were described as "newly erected" in 1770 and were built as an endowment to provide for the poor of Kirtlington.
