Bocking Hall

Bocking Hall is a timber-framed and plastered house dating to the second half of the 16th century, originally built on a T-shaped plan. The house was extended in the 17th century and altered in the 18th century. It is two storeys and has attics. The upper storey is jettied at the south end of the east front, and three gables of varying sizes project on the east front, with two also jettied on the first storey. A wing extends eastwards at the north end. The facade has eight windows overall, arranged 3:3:2, with double-hung sashes and glazing bars set within flush cased frames. The central gable features a Venetian window. Two gabled wings extend from the rear, one with a jettied upper storey and a 17th-century square chimney stack featuring two tiled offsets and diagonal shafts. The doorway retains its original four-centred doorhead and a battened and nailed door. The roofs are tiled. Inside, original features remain, including 17th-century panelling, a fireplace, and exposed ceiling beams with stop-chamfered spine beams with run-out stops.
