2-4 High Street is a commercial property, currently used as a Chinese restaurant in Llandaff, Cardiff, Wales. The building is a two-storey Grade II listed structure and it was listed because it is "Included as a possible design by John Prichard and for its group value with the other listed buildings around The Cathedral Green and on the High Street".[1] It was built of polychromatic stone and Bath stone.[1]

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]
