SU 2746 KIMPTON KIMPTON

7/1 Coach-house & Courtyard wall

II

House, converted from the stable/coach-house of Kimpton House (itself replaced), and the boundary wall to the rear courtyard. 1835, with late C20 restoration and alterations. Flint and brick, with a hipped slate roof. Wide symmetrical front (east) of 2 storeys, 1.2.1 windows. Deep parapet containing the upper windows, with flint panels, stone coping curving upwards above each opening with semi-circular head above the openings: at the slightly-projecting sides the higher level of the parapet allows for a circular flint panel. A plain stone band separates the parapet from the main walls, which have 6 horizontal flint panels, broken by brick quoins and recesses containing the openings (repeated at the sides for the upper openings). C20 casements. Central C20 porch of brickwork with entablature extending forward above corner Tuscan columns, the door being flanked by windows. At each end the elevation details are repeated in 2 bays, at the north with an attached stack and a flat-roofed garage wing. At the rear, the courtyard is enclosed by a high wall, of brickwork with flint panels.
