High Street is shown on the 1771 map of Rotherham and is a medieval survival. The polygon includes number 23 - "formerly the Three Cranes". This building (the ground floor now houses a 'pound' shop) is the surviving half (the rest demolished in 1950s) of a three storied timber framed building of late 16th / early 17th century date. A range at the rear of the building is part of an even earlier medieval building. Building recorded by SY County Council Archaeology Service in early 1980s (SMR PRN 1131). Unknown legibility of pre medieval plan form.
