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

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.
