Description
2 High Street is a two-storey building with a splayed street front, featuring two bays facing north-east and two bays facing south-east. It is constructed from polychromatic stone rubble, with Bath stone ashlar quoins and dressings. The building has carved ashlar brackets at the eaves and a Welsh slate roof, with chimney stacks positioned low on the rear slope, topped with cylindrical terracotta pots. Each bay on the first floor has a trefoil-headed window, while the ground floor includes pointed doorways and flat-headed windows. The two bays of No. 2 have a flat-headed window in the right-hand bay and a large four-light window in the left-hand bay, which is divided by columns and a pillar. To the right of this window is a pointed doorway, and there are multi-pane windows beneath a double relieving arch. The rear elevation has not been seen, and the interior was not inspected during the resurvey.
