Description
The Kenninghall Post Office is a late 18th-century post office and domestic range located on the south side of Market Place in Kenninghall. It is timber-framed with roughcast clay lump infill, and features a brick north gable. The roof is pantiled, with a dormer attic containing three gabled dormers. The ground floor has a central and right-hand entrance, along with three 20th-century casement windows and a 20th-century shop front. The roof includes a north internal gable stack and a ridge stack to the right. A rear roof slope has been altered to accommodate a full-height outshut. Some original internal timbering remains.
