Description

20 High Street is a house that was restored in the late 19th century, with a core dating back to the 18th century. The exterior is rendered and colourwashed, topped with a slate roof featuring gable ends and a brick ridge stack on the left side.

The house has a central entrance hall with one room on each side. It is two storeys high and has a symmetrical front with two windows. The windows are two-light casements, one of which is from the late 18th century and has square-paned leaded lights. There is also a three-light window from the 18th century on the right side of the ground floor. The central door opening features a late 19th-century four-panelled door, topped with a simple slated hood supported by wooden brackets. The interior has not been inspected.
