2. C16.  At the south-west corner of the west rectangle of the garden walls to Scadbury Manor is a small building which was a Pest House for travellers along Watling Street making the pilgrimage to Canterbury.  This is older than the house and is a timber-framed building now faced with red brick and flints.  Two storeys. Hipped tiled roof.  Sprocket eaves cornice.  The interior has a blocked in mullioned window.  Documents of the 1570s showed travellers who died in the Pest House. In the C19 a drying floor was inserted and 2 stock brick circular hop kilns added which at a later stage had crenellated parapets added.
