Description
8 High Street is an early 19th-century, three-storey and attic, two-bay traditional tenement and shop, which is now an inn and part of a terrace. The building features a pilastered shopfront and two large canted dormers. The front is finished with ashlar-lined stucco, while the rear is rendered. Notable architectural details include panelled stall risers, a panelled fascia, a first-floor band course, a first-floor cill course, and an eaves cornice.
The shopfront is located to the right and is flanked by fluted pilasters surrounding a central, recessed, multi-pane-glazed timber door with a rectangular fanlight above. The outer edges have stop-chamfered pilaster strips. To the left, there is a recessed, timber-boarded tenement door also with a rectangular fanlight.
The shopfront has plate glass, while the first and second floors feature timber sash and case windows with four-pane glazing. The roof is covered with grey slate and has a metal ridge, with ashlar-coped skews. There is an ashlar-coped brick gablehead stack on the north side and an ashlar-coped, rendered stack with circular buff clay cans on the south side. The building is equipped with cast-iron rainwater goods.
