Hoestreet Farmhouse

Hoestreet Farmhouse is a 17th-century timber-framed and plastered house located on Roxwell Gravelly Lane. It is a two-storey building with attics and originally featured cross wings at the north-east and south-west ends. The house was used as a lodge by James I in 1606, and his faded coat of arms is painted in one of the bedrooms. The farmhouse underwent alterations and restoration in the 20th century, resulting in the demolition of the south-west cross wing and the addition of a modern structure designed in a period style. The north-east cross wing is plastered and jettied on the upper storey. The windows are 20th-century casements with leaded lights. A gabled staircase wing projects from the rear, and the roof is tiled with a large central chimney stack featuring four diagonally set shafts on a rectangular base. Inside, there are several notable features, including the wall painting of the coat of arms, a 17th-century panelled room, and a painted door in the upper storey of the main block. Additionally, the remains of a moat can be found on the property.
