Former Farm Buildings to Hothfield Place

(Formerly listed as BETHERSDEN ROAD, "The Stables," Polla House, previously listed as Hothfield Place, Farm Buildings)

14.2.67

II
These former farm buildings are the only remaining buildings from Hothfield Place, a house rebuilt in 1778-80 by James Wyatt for Sackville Tufton, Eighth Earl of Thanet, but demolished in 1954. These buildings are probably also by James Wyatt. "The Stables" is a modern name which does not refer to their original functions, the former stables having been demolished. Late C18. At the west end is an L-shaped building now used as stables. One storey red brick. Modillion eaves cornice. Hipped tiled roof. Six round-headed doorways with semi-circular fanlights. Next to this is an octagonal brick dovecote, now used as a feed box, with a lantern at the apex of the roof. Further east are two small rectangular brick buildings now used as stables, each with two round-headed doorways and one round-headed window.
