38 High Street

38 High Street is a building that was originally constructed as a single house but has been subdivided at times. It is now once again a single commercial unit on the ground floor, with separate offices above that are part of 40-42 High Street. The building was first recorded as a shop in 1757 and is likely from the late 18th century, although it has been extensively renewed. It is made of brick with some stone dressings and has a slate roof. The structure has three storeys and features a three-window range, with 20th-century shop fronts on the ground floor and 12-pane sash windows above. The windows are adorned with painted stone heads that have stressed voussoirs. A modillion cornice runs below the parapet, and there are stacks on the end walls.
