Description
The Kitchen and Refectory at The College of Clergy is a building from the 16th or 17th century. It features a timber-framed structure with a plastered ground floor and close studding on the first floor. The roof is steep and covered with pantiles, and it has coped gable ends. The end walls are made of brick and flint, and the building is two storeys high.
On the first floor, there are three windows with two and three lights, all of which are 19th-century casements, although the centre window with two lights is blocked. The ground floor has three modern metal-frame casements and a central modern oak door. Above the doorway, there is a later datestone inscribed "IEM 1727." A brick chimney stack is located at one end of the building. At the rear, there is a wing made of flint, featuring chamfered beams.
