Description
Hawkhurst Farmhouse is an early 18th-century farmhouse built of English garden wall bond brick, topped with a graduated stone slate roof. The building features a two-bay, two-storey baffle-entry plan, with a later one-bay wing added to the left side. To the left, there is a later gabled porch that includes two heavily enriched oak brackets. The ground floor is rendered, and there is a continuous first-floor band made of raised brick. Each floor has two 20th-century casement windows with stone sills and cambered brick arches. The one-bay addition on the left also has similar windows and external steps on the left return that provide access to the first floor. The farmhouse has gable chimney stacks and blocked attic lights in the right gable.
Inside, there is a massive bressumer beam with stepped run-out stops above the inglenook fireplace. The dogleg staircase features a moulded handrail, closed string (with missing balusters), and square newels. The first-floor doors are two-panel doors with ornamental strap hinges.
