Description

No 224 High Street is a house that has been converted into a shop. It dates from the early 18th century and features a timber frame with tile hanging on the street side, while the return front facing the river is weatherboarded. The building has boxed eaves that canted up to the right, leading to a plain tiled roof that is half-hipped on the right side and has swept eaves. There is an end stack on the left and a stack just off the ridge on the right side of the front. A skylight is located on the left. The building has two storeys with an irregular arrangement of three windows on the first floor, which have later 20th-century glazing bar casements. The ground floor features an early 20th-century double shop front with a glazed door set to the left.
