2/13 Hatton's Farmhouse -

- II*

Former farmhouse. Late C15. 2 storeys: basic 3-cell plan with central open hall. Timber-framed; colour-washed brick front, rendered sides and rear. C20 single Roman tiles. An internal chimney-stack and an end stack, both with plain red brick shafts. 3-light old casement windows with pintle hinges, 3 to upper floor, 4 to ground floor, all in deep reveals. Plank door under a cast iron open porch roof. The upper part of the partition at the lower end of the hall remains, with close-studding above a beam with a single row of embattled ornament: in the soffit of this beam housings for the 2 service doorways. The 2-bay hall had an open truss with a marked camber to the tie- beam, supported by deep, plank-like arched braces. Ogee-moulding to the tie- beam, cavetto mould to the braces. Crown-post roof, the post: moulded at cap and base and braced in 4 ways at the head. The ceiling over the hall, inserted in the mid C16, is very high, with multiple roll-mouldings on the heavy cross-beams and around the cornice. At the lower end, the slots and mortices in the soffit of a main beam indicate that a high screen was inserted at the same time as the ceiling, creating a complete cross-passage entry into the house. Part of this screen, with roll-moulding surrounding long recessed panels, is resited on the upper floor. The internal chimney-stack was inserted between the hall and the parlour, and just within the upper bay of the hall. A large open fireplace with plain lintel on the parlour side, and a plain main beam, mutilated. Close studding and arched braces at a steep angle all visible on the upper floor.
