7, High Street

No. 7 High Street is a house that has been converted into a shop. It dates from the late 17th century and was refronted in the mid-19th century. The building features a brick facade with limestone rubble, a large brick stack on the left side, a diagonally-set stack on the right, and a tiled roof that is half-hipped at the rear. It is two rooms deep, three storeys high, and has a cellar, with a two-window range. The late 19th-century shop front includes paired consoles supporting a fascia and cornice, a central doorway, and plate-glass windows with cambered, keyed heads over horned sashes that have margin panes. Inside, the building has been altered, but some details remain, such as chamfered beams on the first floor with chamfer stops featuring notched corners, and a collar truss roof with trenched purlins. The left-hand fireplace on the ground floor was covered at the time of the survey. It is also reported that there is a well in the cellar.
