79-81 High Street

These properties comprise a pair of 3-storey houses with basements (nos. 79 and 81) and two single-storey shops constructed in front of the houses (nos. 79A and 81A). The houses are of yellow stock brick with red brick dressings, and have hipped roofs behind a parapet. The front doors are surmounted by open pediments on consoles and are reached by a flight of stone steps. It is thought that the two shops were built in late Victorian times. The houses and shops were in poor condition by the 1980’s but were completely refurbished by the late 1980’s.

Grade II listed in 1973.

The listing description is:

‘C18 pair of 3 storeys and basement, each 2 windows wide. Brick with band centre to parapet. Front doors adjoining. Beside each is a modern single storey shop extension.’
