Description
No. 1 High Street is a house dating from the 17th century, with alterations made in the 19th century. It is constructed from coursed ironstone rubble and features slate roofs, along with brick ridge and end stacks. The building has an L-shaped plan and stands two storeys high with an attic.
The front of the house faces a forecourt and includes a canted brick bay window topped with a hipped slate roof. This bay window is flanked by 20th-century doors; the left door has a gabled hood, while the right door, set at an angle, has a straight hood. To the far left, there is a three-light casement window with a timber lintel. Above the left door, there is a straight joint. On the first floor, there is a two-light casement window to the left with a timber lintel, and a three-light casement window to the right, which has replaced the original mullions and features a moulded stone surround and a dropped sill. A small roof dormer is present, and the left angle of the building is chamfered. The gables are stone-coped with kneelers.
To the right, there is a lower two-storey projecting wing that has two-light casement windows and a central first-floor door. This door is accessed by an external staircase with an iron handrail, which rises from the left side next to a small one-light ground floor window. The windows and door in this section also have timber lintels.
At the rear of the main range, there is a row of four small early 19th-century single-storey canted bay windows, each with hipped slate roofs and small-paned casement windows—two-light in the front and one-light on the sides. On the first floor, there are four two-light casement windows, one with a timber lintel, while the others feature moulded stone surrounds, dropped sills, and hood moulds. Inside, the building retains some stop-chamfered spine beams. It was formerly known as the Rose and Crown Inn.
