HILDENBOROUGH NIZELS LANE

GV II

House. Probably late medieval with C17 alterations. Description only
approximate as access unobtainable at time of survey (1988). Framed
construction, underbuilt in brick; peg-tile roof; stack with triple shaft with
corbelled cornice.

Plan: A 1957 photograph in the National Monument Record shows a lobby
entrance plan with a gabled projection left of the front door. The stack may
have been inserted into the cross passage of a medieval open hall house.

Exterior: The 1957 photograph shows a 4-window front with enlarged modern
casements and a flat porch hood to the front door.

Interior: Likely to be of interest, particularly the roof construction.

This building might deserve upgrading on internal inspection. An internal
inspection should precede any planning decision on the house to ensure that
internal features of interest, including a possibly medieval roof, are not
disturbed.
