Description

Tannington Place is a farmhouse dating from the 17th century, with an extension added to the right in the early 18th century and a late 18th-century facade. The building features a timber frame with a red brick facade, complemented by a wooden modillion eaves cornice, while the rest is plastered. The roof is covered with concrete plain tiles. It stands two storeys high with an attic and has four windows that are irregularly spaced, featuring flush frame sashes with glazing bars set under gauged brick arches. The doorway is adorned with pilasters, an entablature, and a swept pediment, along with panelled reveals and a six-panel raised and fielded door. A 20th-century French window has replaced a sash window in the left bay. Inside, there are two internal stacks, and the later 18th-century and early 19th-century interior has most of the timber frame concealed. Substantial plain joists can be seen in the ground floor room to the left, and there is a well stair with stick balusters. Some cast iron grates from around 1800 are present. In the earlier section of the house, the attic floor is set well below the eaves level, and the roof features stepped butt purlins.
