Description

71 High Street is a three-storey building constructed of red brick, featuring dressings in bathstone or terracotta. It has a parapet adorned with urn finials and horned sash glazing. The adjacent building, No 69, has a two-window front facing High Street and a splayed corner, while other buildings have three windows along High Street. The upper floors are highlighted by Corinthian pilasters. There is a bracketed cornice with a terracotta band course, a sill course, and bracketed sills for the second-floor windows. The first-floor windows have cambered heads with keyblocks, a broken cornice at the impost level, a sill course, and bracketed sills with terracotta reliefs between the brackets. The ground floor features modern shopfronts set between pilasters that support a dentil cornice. Above the pilasters are small lunettes with reliefs of lion's heads, and the corner has a former round-headed doorway with a keyblock and floral capitals on the jamb pilasters. The elevation of No 69 facing Market Street has three windows on each floor, two large shop windows, and a lower block also in red brick.
