Description
Palace Farmhouse is a Grade I listed building that dates back to the 13th century, with alterations made in the 16th and 18th centuries. It is part of the north range of the former manor house of the Archbishops of Canterbury and includes part of the former chapel. The building has an L-shaped layout and stands three storeys high, with the ground and first floors constructed from stone rubble and flints, while the second floor is made of red brick. All three levels feature long and short ashlar quoins and are topped with a hipped tiled roof.
An early 16th-century window with two lights and four-centred heads, complete with a dripstone above, can be found on the building. The remaining windows are 18th-century sash or casement windows with multiple panes. To the east, there is a recessed wing that is two storeys tall and has one window entirely faced with brick, along with another window featuring a four-centred head. At the south-west corner, there is a section of a ruined wall that includes a pointed doorway. A date tablet from 1586 is located above a window at the south-east corner.
