Building record 1089600000 - 58 & 60 HIGH STREET

Grade II. C17 to 18. Two storeys. Colour washed rubble and rendering. No 58 has tiled roof half hipped at south end, door to right of centre with 2-light casement on left, 2 similar to first floor. No 60 has thatched roof, door left of centre under tiled pentice hood on brackets, 3-light casements each side, 2 small casements in thatch (B1).
Building survey and documentary research suggest the building was originally a single house. No 60 is a two-bay cottage with a central cruck truss, originally the end of the building as both crucks are heavily weathered on one side. The bases of the cruck blades remain, but have been cut off at tiebeam level. No 58 is a two-bay non-cruck building, presumably part of the original house that was rebuilt after it was divided into two in the 17th or 18th century. Both properties were still in single ownership in the 19th and early 20th century. See report for detail (B2).
