House. Medieval house with chapel altered and extended mid C17 and early C19. Timber framed and clad and rendered and extended with painted brick. Slate and plain tiled roofs. Two parallel ranges. Entrance front: 2 storeys with hipped roof with stacks to rear. Three glazing bar sashes on first floor, and 2 round headed blank recesses on ground floor, with door of 6 sunk panels to left in recessed panelled surround with Greek key decoration, all within plain porch. Two storey bow on right return. Rear wing with plinth, plat band and cornice to Dutch gable, with clock face in gable end. The opposite gable end with plain kneelered parapet gable. Attached to left return is a projecting flint wall with stone minted arch, coat of arms over and small lancets to left and to right, probably a C19 folly. This was a manor house and originally had attached a chapel, subject to St. Augustine's, Northbourne, but no remains were left by Hasted's day, although this wall and an outhouse to south west of house may be reconstructed from the chapel ruins. Interior: of Cl9 wing actually late medieval timber framed wing. (See Hasted, IX, 1800, p.608; see also igglesden. XXX, 1935, pp. 57-9). The building is partly in Northbourne parish, and is cross referenced at the end of that parish list.
