Description
No. 9 High Street is a house with a shop, now functioning as a shop with offices above. It dates from the mid-18th century and is constructed of painted ashlar stone with a hipped Welsh slate roof.
The building has three storeys and three bays, with the second and third bays projecting. It features a shallow plinth and a band course with simple panels beneath the first-floor windows, along with a partly missing sill band course on bays two and three. The moulded cornice and parapets have decorative panels that are very worn. On the ground floor, there is a four-panel door in bay one, which has a plain square fanlight and is set within a moulded architrave topped with a moulded flat hood on console brackets. Bays two and three contain a large 20th-century doorway leading to the supermarket.
The first-floor windows are 12-pane sashes in moulded architraves, each with slightly pitched hoods on console brackets. The second-floor windows are smaller 12-pane sashes in architraves, with only bay one having a moulded architrave and small console brackets under the sills, lacking hoods.
Inside, the ground floor has been absorbed into the supermarket, but the first-floor rooms still retain some ceiling cornices despite new partitioning, along with window shutters and under panels. The staircase to the second floor dates from the 18th century, and while the rooms on this floor have been slightly modified, there are no notable features in the attic.
