78 and 78a, High Street

Nos 78 and 78A on High Street is a 17th-century house built from rubble stone with a stone tiled roof and a central ridge stack. The building has two storeys and features a four-window range with four small coped gables and parapets that appear to have been raised. On the upper floor, there are four recessed ovolo-moulded two-light windows with hoodmoulds and small-paned casements.

On the ground floor, from the left, there is a shop front with a half-glazed door and a 20-pane shop window set on an ashlar base. Next to it is a six-panel door in a chamfered surround with a renewed hoodmould, followed by an early 19th-century tripartite sash window with a 4-12-4-pane configuration and a half-glazed door in an unmoulded surround. At the back, there is a long gabled rear wing behind No 78 and a gabled rear wing for No 78A. Inside, there is a heavy chamfered beam in the north end wall of the shop.
