Two glazing bar sashes on each floor that to centre ground floor tripartite, and blocked window space to left on each floor. Four panelled door to centre left with Tuscan pilasters,frieze and pediment and projecting iron lamp bracket. Wooden casements and glazing bar sashes to return elevations. Continuous cat slide outshot to rear. Short stretches of wall to rear extending from rear walls of house, that to north with single storey hipped outhouse with 3 boarded doors. Interior: Baltic pine beams, moulded and painted. Fine dog leg and half landing stair in hall with turned balusters and flat moulded handrail, with boarded door with strap hinges on half landing. Inglenook with salt cupboard and arches with decorative doors. Service end divided from hall by horizontally planked timber wall, with boarded doors and rectangular fanlights to separate dairy (with brick floor) and slatted. dividing wall to cheesery. Upper floor divisions of planking and wattle and daub. Staggered purlin roof. The house is a larger and possibly earlier counterpart to Troy Town House. Both share the same plan, a little archaic in this area by the late C17 with up to date and even prodigious use of Baltic pine. Extraordinary survival of fittings in this building (See Traditional Kent Buildings, Vol. 5).
