Description
No. 18A High Street is a house from the mid-18th century, built on an earlier structure. It features a limewashed ashlar exterior and a stone slate roof, with a rear wall stack. The building is two storeys high and was originally designed with three windows but has been extended to four. The original section has a raised plinth, a dripcourse, and a moulded timber eaves cornice. It includes leaded 2-light bead-moulded mullion windows and a central panelled door surrounded by a beaded frame, topped with a hood supported by brackets. The left bay is roughcast and limewashed, matching the plinth, dripcourse, and eaves cornice of the original range. It has a pair of leaded casements on the first floor and a canted bay window on the ground floor, set on a brick base with a door to the left. The end wall is plastered and likely timber-framed. Inside, the right room on the ground floor features a large fireplace with a cambered timber lintel, and some timber-framing is exposed within the building and in the rear wing.
