Description

24 High Street is a late 18th-century building that stands three storeys tall with an attic. It is constructed of brick and features a stone string course at the first-floor cill level. The roof is a mansard style covered with slate and includes two dormers. On the second floor, there are three windows without glazing bars. The first floor has two large windows, each five panes wide, flanking a central window that is three panes wide. The ground floor features a similar large window on the left side, alongside a central six-panel door set in a moulded stone surround, which has a plain outer surround and a stone pediment hood supported by cut brackets. To the right, there is a small mid-19th-century shop front that includes a modern window but retains a frieze with a dentil and egg and dart band below a projecting cornice, which is finished with paired shaped brackets at either end. This building, along with Nos 16 to 22, forms a cohesive group.
