Hollins

House, formerly reputed to have been a dower house to Whitton Court at Whitton, later subdivided into three houses, now a single house. Built in the late 16th and 17th centuries with 19th-century extensions.

The building is constructed with a painted timber-framed first floor with brick and render infill panels, rubble stone ground floor, and a plain-tiled roof. The roof features an off-centre 17th-century brick ridge chimney with spurred shafts and a 19th-century integral brick verge stack. The plan is H-shaped, with the main framed range flanked by north and south cross wings, each extended.

The building is 2-storeys with an attic. The west entrance front has the north cross wing gable to the left, with a stone rubble ground floor and timber framing above. The square framing comprises jowled posts, braces, a cambered tie beam with weathering board, twin struts, and a collar with twin raking struts. A single trenched-purlin roof is evident. A 2-light leaded casement sits at the first floor. A 20th-century oak-boarded front door with leaded side lights provides the entrance. To the extreme left is a stone single-storey extension with gabled roof containing two 19th-century 2-light casements.

The central 2-bay main range has first-floor timber framing of girding beam, posts, middle rails and studs. The left bay has a 2-light oak casement with leaded lights at the first floor above a metal 3-light casement at ground floor. The right bay shows the position of a former framed window above a plain boarded door with brick segmental-arched lintel.

To the right is the framed gable of the south cross wing. Its first-floor framing consists of rectangular panels with girding beam, jowled posts, studs and middle rails. The jettied tie beam has triple ovolo-chamfer with run-out stops set on ornamental carved brackets. Vertical struts with middle rails and a collar with twin raking struts complete the frame. The struts frame a bricked-up attic window with leaded lights still evident. A 19th-century 2-light casement has been inserted in the original framed window position at the first floor, and a 20th-century metal casement to the left. A metal 3-light casement appears at ground floor.

The right-hand return of the south cross wing shows three framed bays of rectangular panels at first floor above a stone rubble ground floor. The framing consists of a girding beam, posts, middle rails and studs, with two original framed window positions. Two 2-light casements, one in an original position, are present. At ground floor, two 2-light casements flank a plain boarded door with brick segmental arch. The gable-end return was rebuilt in 19th-century brick and is masked by a single-storey stone rubble extension.

The rear of the south cross wing has a single bay of timber framing on a ground-floor stone wall. A 19th-century casement window appears at each floor. A stone rubble extension extends to the left.

The rear of the main range has two framed bays on a stone ground-floor wall, with two original framed window positions. The right-hand position contains a 2-light metal casement. A plain boarded ground-floor door with brick segmental arch stands to the left. The gable-end of the north cross wing to the right has been rebuilt with painted brick, retaining only the jowled posts. A 2-light casement with brick segmental arch appears at the first floor and two at ground floor. The return end of the north cross wing is masked by a 19th-century stone extension.

Internally, the first-floor timbers are reputed to have simple red painted decoration in the form of lines, scrolls, and squares on doors representing panels.
