Description

Dassels House is a late 16th-century house constructed with a timber frame and roughcast exterior. It features steep old red tile roofs, with the main range hipped at the north. The wide-span main range has two storeys and faces west, showcasing a large central chimney. To the south, there is a two-storey crosswing with attics and a cellar that projects only to the rear, containing a staircase in the angle and a large external front chimney at the southwest corner, which has the stumps of two octagonal shafts. The central chimney has diagonally set shafts.

The west front is irregular, featuring a small attic window next to the large chimney at the south end, three first-floor windows, and four ground-floor windows. The windows are casement flush windows with three to five lights. Notable details include fine carved and pierced consoles supporting a flat hood over the plank door. Inside, there are Tudor arched fireplaces, with an especially elaborate one featuring a fluted frieze at the southwest. Additionally, there is a three-light ovolo-moulded blocked window, tension braces in the walls, and bar stops to the chamfers on the doorway from the hall on the ground floor.
