Description
No. 25 High Street is a house that was originally a pair of cottages, dated 1877 on a terracotta plaque. It was designed by George Devey for Hannah de Rothschild as a village schoolmaster's house. The building features a red brick ground floor and whitewashed roughcast above, with tile hanging that includes some fishscale patterning in the gables. It has a 20th-century tile roof with moulded bargeboards and brick chimneys that have square shafts set diagonally, giving it a picturesque appearance.
The house is two storeys tall and has two bays. The windows are barred wooden casements, with those on the ground floor featuring segmental heads. The left bay is gabled and projects forward, with a jettied first floor supported by shaped brackets and a moulded bressumer. It has three-light casements. There are flanking porches with hipped roofs supported by turned wooden balusters; the left porch has 20th-century boarded infill, while the right porch features a 20th-century door. The right bay has a three-light casement on the ground floor and a four-light casement above. Additionally, there is another gable with a jettied first floor on the left side.
