GV II
House, divided into 2 in C18 and back to one in late C20. C17 with C18 (dated 1717) and later alterations. Coursed rubble with brick gables; concrete tile roof with brick end stacks. 2-unit plan. 2 storeys with attic; 2-window range. Interrupted platt band over ground floor. Paired entrances have plank doors in heavy frames. Windows have casements; ground floor has 2-light leaded casement and 3-light small-paned casement; 1st floor has 2 small-paned casements of 3 lights, one with some leaded glazing. Plaque to centre of 1st floor inscribed: S and E K/ 1717 (probably Samuel Kitchen and wife). Returns have continued platt band and steep gables with C18 or early C19 windows: left return has 2 Tudor-headed windows with small-paned glazing; right return has one such window and one window with Tudor-headed glazing in straight-headed opening. Rear has projecting courses to upper part of wall, and 8-light window to 1st floor. Hathaway Hamlet dates from the C17, when it was a collection of 2 or 3 cottages and farm buildings; in the late C18 most of the buildings were converted into workhouse and almshouses for the parish of Old Stratford, being superseded in 1836 by the union workhouse in Stratford. The house had a weaving shop used by John Morris in the late C17 and was divided between his sons-in-law, Samuel and Adam, by his will, one of whom retained the weaving shop. (Bearman R: Hathaway Hamlet: typed notes: 1972-).
