High House

High House is a dwelling that dates from the early 17th century and late 18th century. It features an ashlar facade with a parapet cornice and a hipped stone slate roof, along with a cut squared stone return that has coping swept to a stone stack. The rear wing is constructed of coursed rubble and also has a stone slate roof. The earlier part of the house is three storeys tall and connects to the later two-storey section. The main facade facing the street is two storeys high with three windows that contain sashes with glazing bars set in reveals. There is a central six-panel moulded door topped by a decorated fanlight and flanked by a slender Doric pillar portico with a flat entablature. The earlier wing at the back is three storeys tall with one window that has sashes with glazing bars, and there are small lights in flat flush surrounds on the rear. Inside, there is a newel stair in a cylindrical well in the older section, and a long oval well stair with a stick balustrade and mahogany rail in the later unit, along with window shutters.
