Description

The Corner House is a house dating from the mid-18th century, located at the junction of High Street and Lower Street. The building features coursed rubble stonework with a coped gable on the front, a double-Roman tile roof, and two brick chimneys, one of which rises from the gable. It stands three storeys tall and has two bays. The first and second floors each have 12-pane sash windows set in bolection moulded stone architraves, while the centre of the gable features a small oval opening in moulded stone surrounds.

On the ground floor, there is a central door opening that leads into an early 19th-century single-storey flat-roofed canted bay, which has a six-panelled door with a transom light above it. There are also 20-pane shop windows on either side of the door. The right side of the building facing High Street has two stone-mullioned windows with two lights, also in bolection moulded stone surrounds, and a small 19th-century casement window with glazing bars on the ground floor. The left side of the building features a door opening in an ogee-moulded stone surround, topped with a segmental stone hood supported by cut stone brackets, leading to a 20th-century half-glazed door.
