Building record TQ 55 NW 586 - Blackhall House, 1 and 2 Blackhall Lane, Sevenoaks

Blackhall house is an ancient foundation extended and overlaid with subsequent facades between about 1600 and 1890. It is brick built under tile, two stories with attics, currently consisting of two separately owned sections, that to RHS being older (? early 18th century ) and the LHS having been added in the late Victorian period. There is a further wing at right angles, to the rear of the original building. The LHS has bay windows on two floors, capped with tiled roof, and the front door is to the left with a two light window above. The windows may be replacements in the 'Gothic' style but there are original brick drip moulds over the downstairs windows. The RH part of the building is double fronted with flat three-light casement windows to each side plus a small window over the front door. The canopy over the front door may well be a Victorian addition. There are stone drip moulds over the windows and the brickwork is quite weathered and variable in colour, laid in English bond. (1)
