Description
59 and 61 High Street are a pair of attached cottages dating from the early 19th century. They are constructed from coursed and squared rubble with slate roofs and feature two brick ridge stacks. Both cottages are designed in a similar style, standing two storeys high with two bays on one side and three on the other. The first floor has casement windows with glazing bars. Number 57 has two pairs of small 12-pane sash windows on the ground floor, while number 59 has a single late 19th-century glazing-bar casement window beneath a wooden lintel. There is a plain stone door opening to the left, which contains a six-panelled door with the top two panels glazed. To the right, there is a stone jamb door opening with a wooden lintel, leading to a late 19th-century four-panelled door.
