123 AND 125, BRIDGE STREET

Nos. 123 and 125 on Bridge Street are a pair of houses dating from around 1500, with later cladding from the 17th to 18th centuries. They feature a timber frame with plaster infill on the return elevations, while the street front is clad in red brick laid in irregular English bond and painted brick with tile hanging. The houses have a plain tiled roof and are originally a Wealden hall house.

They stand two storeys high with an attic, on a plinth that has a plat band to the right. The hipped roof includes gablets, three flat dormers on the left, and a chimney stack at the end right, with another at the rear left and a cluster in the centre right. The first floor has two wooden casements on the left and two glazing bar sashes on the right. The ground floor features two tripartite sashes on the left and two 20th-century casements on the right, all within segmentally headed surrounds.

There is a planked door in a segmentally headed recessed porch to the centre right, as well as another deeply recessed porch to the right, both with flights of steps. The return elevations display exposed frames and jetties on dragon posts, characteristic of "Kentish framing," with tension bracing and blocked mullioned windows.
