10, 20 High Street, Blakeney
Grade II Listed as one building including 18 Post Office and 20 Barclays Bank, indicating its previous use. The OS map appears to indicate the building as 18 and 20 Hollyhock cottage (that includes 20A) with 12, 14 and 16 behind. In 1994 planning was approved for the conversion of unified premises, 18-20 High Street, into seven cottages. This seems to account for the re-numbering. No.10 (previously 18) has a rear access with ground floor bedroom and first floor kitchen/lounge/dining room extending over the archway. Late in 1994 permission had been granted for conversion from shop to cottage. In a 1950s photo it is shown with a shop front and door to one (south) side. It was sold in 2020 and the name and number plaque seems to have been removed from the front suggesting its new owner wants to disassociate with its previous existence. No.20 in the 1950s photo had a shop front and centre door. In 1990 replacement of the shop front for a gift shop had been granted. It is now (2022) a holiday let. The two bedroom 887 sq ft property was apparently sold in 2015 and in January 2016 it was advertised as recently having had a makeover. There seems to have been a further sale in March 2017.
