Description

Haden's End is a house dating from the late 16th century, with extensions added in the 17th and 20th centuries. It features a timber-framed structure with plaster and a thatched roof. The building consists of three bays and has an axial chimney stack located in the middle bay. There is a 17th-century extension to the southeast, which includes an end chimney stack, and a 20th-century flat-roofed single-storey extension at the rear. Additionally, there is a single-storey 20th-century extension to the northeast, which includes attics, and a 20th-century porch extension to the southwest, also with attics.

On the ground floor, there are three 20th-century casement windows, two 17th-century windows with two fixed lights, and one wrought-iron casement window. The entrance features a plain door with a shallow hood. The house has two gabled dormers, one with a 20th-century casement window and the other with a 17th-century window consisting of two fixed lights and a wrought-iron casement. The roof is half-hipped at the northwest end only.

The interior includes jowled storey posts, cambered tiebeams, and curved tension bracing that is trenched inside the studs. There is one unglazed window with diamond mullions in the southeast end wall of the original house, which is now part of an open partition. The house retains five 17th-century windows with wrought-iron casements and leaded glass, some of which are original, along with some original floorboards.
