Description
9 and 11 High Street is a pair of houses that have been converted into one house and two shops. They date from the mid-17th century, with a facade from the mid to late 19th century and 20th-century shop fronts. The building is rendered, with a part timber-framed rear, and has rubble and brick party wall stacks along with a tiled roof. The plan consists of one bay for No. 9 and two bays for No. 11, both parallel to the street, with a 18th-century rear left-hand wing.
The exterior features three storeys and an attic, arranged in a three-window range. No. 9 is wider and both houses are unified by a facade that includes round-ended rusticated quoins, a plain frieze, and coved parapet coping that returns at the ends. The shop windows are plate glass with canted ends, and there is a central door leading to the wider left-hand shop, along with a left-hand door for the right-hand shop. The first-floor sash windows include 8/8 panes on the right, 6/6 panes in the center, and a square left-hand oriel with 12 panes and side casements. The second-floor sashes have 3/6 panes. The rear of No. 9 features a second-floor jettied gable and a two-light mullion window, while No. 11 has a half-hipped roof with a late 17th-century two-light gabled dormer that includes iron stays, fittings, and leaded lights. The rear wing has four windows, with a cottage and stables, constructed of rubble with a stone slate roof and segmental-arched heads to the sashes. The doors are boarded and panelled.
The interior has not been inspected, but No. 9 is reported to have a 16th-century roof with jowl posts, collar trusses, and wind braces. No. 11 features chamfered ceiling beams and a collar truss roof that was renewed in the 19th century, along with an extensive vaulted undercroft that may date back to the 13th century. Historically, the building was probably originally designed with a jettied front.
