Kennett End

Kennett End is a farmhouse dating from the late 15th century that was divided into two dwellings in the 19th century. It features a timber-framed structure with plaster and a modern plain tile roof, along with a later rear outshut. A large 16th-century ridge stack made of local red brick has a dentil string course and three reduced octagonal shafts with moulded bases, which were possibly rebuilt in local yellow brick in the 17th century. There is also an end stack to the west made of similar brick.

The building is two storeys high with attics and has three modern casement windows on both the first and ground floors, along with a half-glazed door on the left side. The internal layout follows a three-unit plan with a central open hall and a chamber over the parlour to the east, which originally jetted out. The jetty was removed when the chimney was inserted, along with part of the attic floor. The closed truss to the west of the hall remains intact. The 15th-century floor frames include joists with centre tenons, and the attic floors also feature soffit tenons from the same period. A 17th-century hall floor frame has an axial beam with ovolo moulding. The side purlin roofs at each end are intact, and the crown-post roof timbers over the hall may have been reconstructed in the 17th century. There is a re-used door head in the attic, and one diamond mullion window with visible shutter grooves. Other details are obscured by plaster, and the absence of smoke blackening in the hall suggests that an original rear side stack was removed in the 16th century when the outshut was added and an internal stack was constructed.
