12 and 14, The Street

Nos. 12 and 14 on The Street in Hatfield Peverel are a house dating from the 17th century, with alterations made in the 18th century. The building is timber framed, plastered, and has a roof covered with handmade red clay tiles. It has four bays facing southeast, featuring an axial stack and an 18th-century external stack at the right end. There is an 18th-century rear extension at the right end, along with a single-storey lean-to extension along the rest of the rear, which has a 19th-century external stack. The house is two storeys tall.

On the ground floor, there are four 20th-century casement windows, while the first floor has three 20th-century casements and one 19th-century casement. The entrance to No. 12 features a 20th-century glazed door, with another door located in the left return of No. 14. Inside, there is a large wood-burning hearth made of 0.33 metre brickwork facing to the right, which has been reduced for a 20th-century grate. The interior includes chamfered axial beams with lamb's tongue stops and plain joists of vertical section. The rear wallplate shows a face-halved and bladed scarf joint. The walls were raised in the 18th century, and the right bay is of later construction than the main part of the house. The interior of No. 14 has not been examined.
