Description
19 High Street is a tenement building from the earlier to mid-19th century, featuring three storeys and two bays. It has a symmetrical shopfront that is part of a terrace. The shopfront is smooth-rendered, with painted tooled ashlar and polished ashlar margins, as well as raised cills above. The rear of the building is made of rubble with red sandstone ashlar dressings, partly rendered.
The shopfront includes a base course, panelled stall risers, and a consoled cornice, along with an eaves course and raised quoin strips. The windows are regularly spaced, with a central two-leaf timber-panelled outer door that has a rectangular fanlight above. Behind this, there is a recessed modern door, flanked by large shop windows.
The shop windows feature fixed plate glass with two horizontal glazing bars, while elsewhere in the building, there are timber sash-and-case windows with plate glass. The roof is covered in grey slate, with a rubble ridge stack that has an ashlar cope and quoins to the southwest, and a brick ridge stack with an ashlar cope to the northeast, topped with circular buff clay cans.
