Hatch Farmhouse And Storehouse Wing

Hatch Farmhouse and its storehouse wing is a house that has developed over several phases. It has a core from the 16th century, an extension from the 18th century, and additions from the mid-19th century. The building features mixed walling materials and a tiled roof. It is a long rectangular structure with a shorter, wider, and taller addition at the southeast corner. The main front, dating from the early 19th century, is two storeys high with three windows. The roof is hipped on the northwest side and has low eaves. The walls are roughcast with a cement plinth, and there is a doorway that has been filled in with a small window. The facade includes four sash windows and three casement windows. The Victorian addition features a two-storeyed bay, with its southeast gable projecting forward of the main part's lower gable. The rear side reveals exposed timber framing with close-studding, a tile-hung gable above, some small casements, and a large boarded door set in a massive frame. The storehouse wing is connected to the house by a flat-roofed passageway and consists of a long, low rectangular block that ends at the south as a two-bay cartshed facing the roadway. This cartshed has a tiled roof with a hip at the south end, walls made of ironstone with brick quoins and plinth, and a timber-framed opening with an arch-braced centre-post.
