Description
Hoplands House is a house that dates from the 17th century or earlier and was remodeled in the early 19th century, with further changes in the 19th and 20th centuries. It is two storeys high and consists of two houses combined into one, all constructed with a timber frame. The west side features a four-window range, with painted brick and a slate roof, while the east side has two windows, is weatherboarded and pargetted, and has an old tile roof. There is a red brick stack from the 17th century or earlier at the junction with a modern flue. On the west side, there are ground and first-floor 6/6 sash windows and plain eaves, while the east side, dating from the 19th or 20th century, has two- and three-light casements. Inside, there are longitudinal floor beams and a chimney breast with a wooden lintel.
