Description
130 High Street and its outbuildings date from the 19th century but incorporate earlier materials. The main building is a two-storey, six-bay pair of houses in an irregular terrace, now converted into a house and office. The front features dry-dash with stone margins, a base course, stone mullions, and a shop fascia board, while the rear is constructed from random whinstone rubble with rendered single-storey extensions.
On the north elevation facing High Street, there is a wooden door in the second bay from the left, a bipartite window on the far left, and a window with a pend along with two further bays to the right. The first floor has regular windows, with the outer left bipartite window breaking the eaves and a blank bay above the door.
The south elevation features an eastern building of greater depth, which has a bipartite window on the left at both levels, breaking the eaves at the first floor, and a single window on the outer right at the first floor, along with a 19th-century rooflight. There is a door in the west face of the pitch roof extension, a window to the south, and a further flat-roofed extension clasping the eastern face and abutting the main building. The western building has a pend on the right and a small window above, with single-storey 19th-century outbuildings (possibly a former house) abutting on the left, where the roof pitch breaks the eaves of the street front block.
The sash and case windows feature a plate glass glazing pattern, while the fixed windows in the two outer right bays of the ground floor front have a 9-pane glazing pattern. The eastern building has modern brown concrete tiles, while the western building has grey slate on the north side, red pantiles, and a slate eaves easing course on the south side. The buildings have ashlar skews and thackstanes, with the western building featuring a hipped, harled stack, and the eastern building having a coped stack made of part rubble and part harled material, along with a square hopper. There are exposed decorative eaves and a finial on the slated pitch roof extension.
At the rear of the property are outbuildings that include a pair of 18th-century single-storey cottages adjoining a 19th-century single-storey cottage. These are constructed from heavily dressed squared and snecked stone blocks with stone cills and an eaves lintel course. The right cottage features a timber architraved door surround with a letterbox fanlight and a chamfered outer right corner, topped with pantiles. The cottages join on slightly sloping ground in an irregular terrace, with the single-storey cottage having dressed stone quoins, some whinstone blocks, and some rubble, all covered with modern pantiles.
