Description
Navestock Hall is a house dating from the early 16th century, featuring exposed timber-framing and a peg-tiled roof. The building underwent significant alterations and major rebuilding after sustaining bomb damage in September 1940. It has two storeys and attics. The southwest block retains an original first floor that jetties to the north and south, supported by flat laid joists with soffit tenons. Although the side walls have been drastically restored, the bracing may mimic the original design. The south face includes a projecting timber-framed gabled bay that was built in the 20th century.
Inside, the northeast block has 17th-century principal ceiling joists with lamb's tongue stopped chamfers. Between the two blocks, there is a large chimney stack and a small 18th-century staircase with turned softwood balusters. The northwest block is likely from the 18th century but has been extensively rebuilt. A rainwater head dated 1767 is located on the southeast front. Navestock Hall, along with the granary and stable, forms a group of buildings.
