17, 18 South Street And 25 High Street

Nos 17 and 18 South Street and 25 High Street is a house likely built in the late 17th century. It features rubble walls and a stone slate roof, with two tall storeys and a large attic. The front is highlighted by a full-height porch and a large rear gable. The section facing South Street has different surface treatments, with No 17 having slobbered walls. The house appears to have originally been three bays, with the porch providing access to the right-hand end.

It has double chamfered stone mullion windows under continuous hoodmoulds in the first two bays, while the porch bay has detached hoodmoulds. The porch includes a chamfered doorway that is slightly off centre, a three-light window above, and a stepped three-light window in the gable, which is topped with heavy moulded kneelers. The first two bays feature four-light and six-light windows with a king mullion below, and four-light windows above. A later chamfered doorway has been inserted between the bays, and both doors are unglazed.

There are two moulded chimney stacks, one on the left gable and one on the ridge. The rear of the house has a large gable with three bays of windows across two storeys, including two sashed windows with glazing bars. A three-light double chamfered stone mullion window with a hoodmould is located in the gable, which also has a chimney. The interior has not been inspected but may hold historical interest.
