Highlands

Highlands is a Grade II listed house built by Dr. Newington in the early 19th century as a private mental home. It is now part of Ticehurst House Private Clinic, which is adjacent to it.

The building is a double L-shaped structure with two storeys. It features four windows on the south side and six windows on the east side, all of which are stuccoed. There is a stringcourse, an eaves bracket cornice, and a slate roof. The windows are adorned with fancy Gothic glazing, complete with intact glazing bars, and some are pointed. The south front and the south end of the east front have a glass veranda on the ground floor. The west front includes a flattened curved bay with one window bay on the first floor, supported by two fluted Ionic columns that create a porch.

Originally, the house had several ornamental garden buildings, including a Chinese gallery, a Gothic conservatory, and aviaries, which were illustrated in Horsfield's History of Sussex, but these have since been demolished.
