Description
12 High Street is an end of terrace house featuring three bays and three storeys, topped with a slate gabled roof that has no chimneys. The eaves are close with a moulded eaves board. The facade is painted roughcast, accented with long and short stucco quoins on the left and right. The upper floors are fitted with horned sashes that include marginal glazing, and there are likely original waisted rainwater heads on each side.
The ground floor shop extends significantly forward and has a flat roof with a deep moulded cornice that overhangs a corrugated-iron tent-roofed canopy, supported by four cast-iron columns with decorative capitals. The shopfront dates from the later 19th century but is flanked by fluted Greek Doric timber half-columns, which are presumably from the earlier 19th century. The recessed centre features a glazed door with an overlight, flanked by canted plate glass windows. Each side of the front has similar three-light plate-glass windows, with panes that have curved upper angles and thin dividing shafts. Supporting the soffit of the main cornice are four reeded and garlanded thin cast-iron columns that carry large concave cast-iron brackets with globe pendants, with a fifth bracket located to the left. There is a boarded double door to the left of the shopfront.
The right-hand return is blank and roughcast. Decorative metal fringes that once adorned the shopfront roof and the edge of the canopy, similar to those on Nos 8 and 10, have been lost. The shop interior has been altered, but plain cast iron columns are visible along the line of the original front wall. The interior of the house has not been inspected.
