Description

30 High Street is a house that has been converted into commercial premises, dating from the late 16th century or early 17th century. It was refronted in the 18th century and altered in the 19th century.

The building is constructed of roughcast with a coursed rubble rear wing, featuring party wall chimney stacks and a tiled roof. It has an L-shaped plan that includes a rear left-hand wing.

The exterior is two storeys high with a four-window front range. It has a parapeted facade adorned with a dentil cornice. The doorway, located to the left of centre, features mid-20th century engaged, fluted timber pilasters beneath an open pediment, an 18th century six-panel door, and a blind radial fanlight. To the left of the door is a six-over-six-pane sash window, while to the right is a late 20th century shop front with three plate-glass windows and a fascia. The first-floor windows have cambered heads and three-over-six-pane sashes. The south-west wall at the rear is reported to retain chamfered stone door jambs and a stone mullion window with a moulded label and square stop.

Inside, the building contains a seven-bay roof with cambered tie beams and collars, along with wide attic elm floorboards. The Royal Commission on the Historical Monuments of England reports wall brackets that may originate from an earlier timber-framed structure. There is also a large brick chimney stack located between 30 and 32 High Street, which is also Grade II listed.

Historically, the roof extends over to 32 High Street, with which it shares a similar doorway and was likely fully integrated.
