Description

30 High Street is a possibly late 18th century, two-storey terraced tenement with an attic and later additions and alterations. The building features a two-bay design and has a 19th century shop front at ground level. The exterior is finished with painted bull-faced cement render on the ground and first floors, accented by polished ashlar dressings, while the rear elevation is rendered. It has a base course, a cornice above the fascia band, and stop-chamfered margins at the ground level.

On the northwest elevation facing High Street, there is a central two-leaf panelled door set within a tripartite shopfront. This includes a deep-set half-glazed inner shop door with a rectangular plate glass fanlight above, flanked by two-pane plate glass fixed-pane shop windows. To the outer right, there is a panelled door at ground level. The first floor has a window in each bay.

The southeast elevation features a widely spaced panelled door to the outer right, topped with a radial semicircular fanlight.

The building has modern glazing and a slate roof, with half-piended canted three-light dormers in each outer bay on the northwest side. The interior was not seen during the last inspection in 1995.
