II House. Re-erected in 1926 after having been exhibited at the 1925 British Empire Exhibition at Wembley. Timber-framed with plastered infilling, with close studding and tension braces. Slightly pitched hipped plain tile roof and large brick aerial stacks. Intended to be a facsimile of a Wealdon house, although archaeologically not correct. Open hall with storeyed service end with jettied chamber over and parlour with jettied solar. Large arched braces and central bracket under the continuous eaves over the hall. Screen passage doorway to right of hall with tiled canopy. Multi-light hall window with some lights parelled over. Three-light solar and lower end first floor chamber windows with square bays below under the jetties. All windows are wooden mullion casements with either diamond or square leaded panes. Four hipped dormers two of which light the hall. Rear wing at lower end with half-hipped roof and catslide over outshot. Two large brick aerial chimney stacks emerging from the ridge.

Interior: open hall with roof structure exposed and with gallery. Large stack at end of hall is Flemish bond brickwork and with cambered arch wooden fireplace beam with sunken spandrels. The parlour has wooden screens and moulded ceiling beams including a dragon beam.

The house was exhibited at the British Empire Exhibition at Wembley by the Federated Home Crown Timber Merchants Association to demonstrate the use of native timber.
