Thorne Farmhouse

Thorne Farmhouse is an early 18th-century building of red brick, situated in Bethersden. It is two storeys and attics in height, with a hipped tiled roof punctuated by two gabled dormers, and a moulded wooden eaves cornice. The facade features five sash windows with intact glazing bars. A doorcase incorporates pilasters, a pediment, a rectangular fanlight, and a door of six fielded panels. The first floor of the south front is tile-hung. Internally, a staircase from the 18th century displays two twisted balusters to each step, and a fireplace is adorned with a Bethersden marble chimney piece.
