Description

No. 21 High Street is a house that was originally a pair of cottages, dating from the early 19th century but with older origins. It has been altered in the 20th century. The building is constructed of red brick in Flemish bond with flared headers, topped with a plain-tile roof and a brick ridge stack. It features a two-unit plan, stands two storeys high with an attic, and has a two-window range. A 20th-century door is located to the far left, which has a flat-arched head and a 20th-century hood above it. The ground and first floors have two-light casement windows with flat-arched heads. The building also has a rendered plinth, cogged brick eaves, and two gable roof dormer windows. At the rear, there is a single-storey extension or outshut with a catslide roof. Inside, there is a stone cellar with a chamfered spine beam, winder stairs, and a visible tie beam and strut in the roof of the kitchen extension, with another tie beam likely concealed by partitioning. A chamfered spine beam is also present in the first-floor room.
