TR 04 SE BROOK TROY TOWN
4/66 Troy Town House and 15.3.88 wall
GV II*
House. Late C17. Red and blue brick with plain tiled roof. Lobby entry 3 unit plan. Two storeys on high plinth with plat band and boxed eaves to roof with stack to centre left. Three glazing bar sashes with 2 intermediate wooden casements on first floor, and 3 tripartite wooden casements with segmental lintels on ground floor. Raised and fielded panelled door to centre left in moulded, pylon shaped architrave with segmental hood on brackets. Continuous and integral catslide outshot to rear. Short section of garden wall, about 3 feet high, projecting some 20 metres or so from end left. Interior: all the timber work is of Baltic pine, with large moulded ceiling beams and joists and chimney bressumer. Panelled, and plank and mullion doors with fanlights. Fine dog-leg stairs in hall with turned balusters and flat moulded rail, rising through 3 flights. Signature of Richard Cullen in attic, dated 1744, though the house is probably some 100 years earlier. The building is an almost identical, but smaller and probably slightly later version of Naccolt Farmhouse, also in Brook (see item 4/49), both preserving the late medieval 3 unit plan whilst attempting some symmetry of facade, and with prodigious and locally early use of fittings and details particularly the use of Baltic Pine. (See Traditional Kent Buildings, Vol 5).
