History
Cadw believe that both properties (2 and 4 High Street) were probably designed by John Prichard and built around 1863 as a home and premises for Mr. Seaborn, the butcher.[1] built of polychromatic stone and Bath stone.[1] 2-4 High Street is a Grade II listed structure.[2] Other buildings in High Street include St Andrew, St Cross, 6 High Street and 19 High Street that are also Grade II listed.
The Chim family owns the property and has done so since 1988.[3] It is today a Cantonese restaurant called Summer Palace.[3]
