2A And 3, High Street

Nos 2A and 3 on High Street, dated 1652, are notable buildings that, despite their older and altered appearance, likely retain this date. They are constructed of rubble with large quoins and feature a slate roof with weathered coping on the left side. The buildings have stone chimneys, one of which is diagonal and has moulded caps and weathering. They stand two and a half storeys tall with a parapet, a moulded plinth, and string courses over the ground and first floors.

The facade consists of one and three bays, with the three right-hand bays being symmetrical and featuring outer angled bays with six-light mullion and transom windows. The crenellated parapet above these bays is probably a later addition. There is a central transomed window on the first floor above a modern ledged door, while the left-hand bay has been altered to include a Tudor arched and moulded doorway with high stop-chamfers, now filled with modern brick, and a four-light window on the first floor under a lintel, which may have replaced an oriel window. A small inserted window is located between the left-hand angled bay and the left-hand doorway. The parapet displays two date panels, with the central one being moulded and the right-hand one inscribed "H.B. 1652".

The house has recently undergone restoration, with the left-hand bay rebuilt and the transoms in the right-hand bay replaced. At the rear, there is a four-centred entrance that aligns with a similar door to the street, as well as a three-storey 'L' plan extension featuring mullion windows and relieving arches over drip labels.

Inside, there are several mid-17th century Tudor arch fireplaces. The stairs have been removed from their original position north of the central fireplace, and there are indications of a former stair turret in the angle with the extensions. The building also has a very wide through passage.
