Hampton House and 2, High Street Including 1, Tetbury Street

Hampton House and 2, High Street, including 1, Tetbury Street, is a large house originally built in a row, later subdivided into several occupancies. The core of the building dates to the mid-17th century, with significant remodeling in the early 18th century, and subsequent subdivision alongside shop front insertions. It is constructed from random rubble limestone, with some areas roughcast rendered, ashlar chimneys, and a stone slate roof.

The building is two storeys with an attic, featuring a return block along Tetbury Street to the south. The front has three full gables, each with original two-light recessed chamfered mullioned casements with hoodmolds. Most of the upper floor windows are early 18th century segmental-arched sashes with 12 panes, keyed architraves, and bull-nosed sills. Two of the upper floor windows on the right side have been restored with concrete lintels. There are eight upper floor windows in total. The ground floor has been altered to incorporate a shop bay window in the centre and, to the right, a lean-to addition with a four-pane sash window, and 19th-century shop windows. Two 16-pane sashes are located on the left side of the ground floor. A ridge-mounted chimney includes a cluster of four shafts with a linking moulded cap. The south return to Tetbury Street features a gable end with a single attic light. A double 12-pane sash window is on the ground floor. The return wing to the right appears to be a conversion from a coach house, retaining large plank doors with a timber lintel. Fenestration in this section is varied, with a 16-pane upper floor sash window. The interior has not been inspected. The building was formerly the White Hart Inn, and the cellars were reportedly used as a prison. It occupies an important corner position.
