Description
High House is a house dating from around 1630, constructed of brick laid in English bond and now largely colourwashed, situated under a plain tiled roof. It features a lobby entry plan and stands two storeys tall, with a single-storey 20th-century extension on the left end. The building has tall proportions and includes a central panelled multiple ridge stack on a square plinth, which is decorated with string courses. There is a plat band above the ground floor and metal brackets supporting the deep eaves.
The front of the house is regular, with two outer three-light wood-framed windows with cambered heads on the first floor, and a central two-light window. The ground floor has two four-light windows at the ends. The entrance features a panelled door with the top two panels glazed, set beneath a 20th-century gabled "rustic" porch hood. There are casement doors on the left end.
The right-hand return front includes a gable-lit attic and a tile-hung gable, with a wing extending at right angles to the rear.
