Property: 119-119a
119 and 119a High St. are one of two surviving houses out of five that originally stood on the land which stretched from the Kings Head to Watts Lane. They were built early in the 18th Century. The property originally belonged to Ann Cook the widow of Richard Chandler Cook, a baker. 119 was built at the beginning of the 18th century by George Chandler, also a baker. Following him, it was occupied by his daughter and son-in-law, Jane & William Co0k. Later it was described as a ‘pretty cottage with a porch’, the home of Miss Travers Dade who married Mr Tate the dentist in the early 1900s. It was still a private house in the 1920s but the downstairs rooms are now a shop and the building has been divided into several parts.
The cottage is similar to 101 and 103, brick built, 3-storeys with 3 windows above and 3 dormer windows in slate roof. It was still a private house in the 1920s but the downstairs rooms are now a shop and the building has been divided into several parts.
