Oasthouse And Hop Kilns Immediately South Of Old Country House

The building is an oasthouse and hop kilns located immediately south of the Old Country House. It likely dates from the late 17th century to early 18th century for the northern part, and late 19th century for the southern part.

The northern section is a timber-framed structure with wattle and daub infill, cased in rubble, and features a tiled roof. It is one storey high with an attic, consisting of two bays. There is a 9-pane casement window in the north attic gable, and an entrance on the east side through a ledged door into the northern bay. The framing consists of square panels, three high to the wall-plate, with raking struts from collars in the gables.

The southern section comprises a pair of attached brick cylindrical hop kilns topped with conical slate roofs, which have cowls and wind-vanes. Inside the northern part, there is a hop-treading hole, a complete cider press, and a cider mill powered by a circa 1936 "Matchless" motorcycle.
