Summary

Two bays of an early-C16 house. Its front was remodelled in the mid-C19 and the shop front was installed in about 1970. The rear outshut was rebuilt in the C20.

Reasons for Designation

75 High Street, previously part of a larger house, is listed at Grade II for the following principal reasons:

Architectural interest:

* as two bays of an early-C16 house that retains its original collar and tie beam roof trusses with associated wind braces.

Group value:

* with the attached Grade-II* listed 73 High Street it historically formed a single, early-C16 house.

History

Built in the early C16 as a five-bay house. It later became the Bull’s Head Inn before being subdivided as 73 (separately listed at Grade II*) and 75 High Street.

Details

Former dwelling; two bays of a formerly larger early-C16 house; the other part is 73 High Street (Grade II*). Its front was remodelled in the mid-C19 and the shop front was installed in about 1970. The rear outshut was rebuilt in the C20.

MATERIALS: it is constructed from coursed, squared, limestone rubble which has been rendered to the front. Stone rubble and brick construction to the rear. The roof is covered in slate.

PLAN: single-depth plan with rear outshut; originally part of a larger house.

EXTERIOR: it is a two-storey building with attic. The principal elevation is of two bays, with, to the right, a full-height, round-arched carriageway, now partly blocked by the inserted first floor. C20 shop front. Eight-over-twelve sash windows to the first floor and a hipped dormer with a three-over-three-sash window to the attic. The rubble stone rear wall has a first-floor, three-over-six, sash window with moulded architrave and the ends of a former mullion.

INTERIOR: the building retains two bays of the original early-C16, five-bay roof that continues over 73 High Street (Grade II*). The roof comprises straight collars and tie beams with alternate curved wind braces on the east and west sides of each bay.
