143, High Street

No. 143 High Street is a shop with accommodation above, dating from the early 1820s, though it may have an earlier core. The building features a late 19th-century shop front and is finished in stucco with a slate roof and a brick stack at the left end. It has a small double depth plan, being one room wide, and stands three storeys tall with a one-bay front. The slate roof has deep eaves supported by paired moulded brackets and a timber moulding below, which matches the adjoining properties No. 144 and 144A, although their rooflines differ.

On the first floor, there is an early 19th-century 16-pane sash window, while the second floor has a similar sash window with a 4/8-pane configuration. The ground floor features a late 19th or early 20th-century shop front, which includes heavy granite pilasters with tooled rustication on either side and reeded brackets below the fascia, topped with round-headed finials. To the right, there is a recessed 20th-century half-glazed shop door, and remnants of 19th-century tiling can be seen in front of the door. The shop window curves inward towards the door and consists of two panes with a moulded frame, sill, and mullion. The front door on the left has a smaller version of the granite pilasters to its right and has been converted into a window. The interior was not inspected during the survey, but it may contain features of interest.
