Description
Hundred House is a former coaching inn dating to the late 18th or early 19th century, located on Worcester Road, Great Witley. It comprises a red brick front range with a slate hipped roof, and a parallel red brick rear range with a tiled hipped roof. The building is two rooms deep and features an end stack on the left and a rear stack. A central entrance and stairwell are prominent.
The front elevation is three storeys high, with four windows featuring glazing bar sashes in cambered heads. Wide two-storey, three-window bows flank the front, marked by sill strings. A central porticoed doorway with Doric columns now has a later door; a recessed panel above the entrance is partially obscured by a 20th-century inn sign.
The interior has been altered, but an early 19th-century staircase with turned balusters remains. Historically, the building served as a venue for local session hearings, the name “Hundred” referring to a subdivision of the county with its own court.
Attached to the east is a quadrant wall.
