19 and 20 High Street.

Twentieth century shop front with a deep fascia extending across a passageway to the right. Number 20 has 18th century sash windows with moulded flush frames; ground floor glazed with probably original 12-pane sashes. The first floor windows also have moulded flush frames but are glazed with later 4-pane sashes. The windows of number 19 may have been the same but are now early 19th century and longer. First floor glazed with recessed 12-pane sashes; second floor with similar 3/6-pane sashes.
