Description
This is an early 19th-century oast house located in Newenden. The round kiln is constructed of red brick in a Sussex bond, featuring a dogtooth cornice and a conical, tiled roof with a wooden cowl and fantail. The stowage section has a base of tooled ashlar stone, brickwork above in a Flemish bond pattern, and a weatherboarded first floor, topped with a slate roof. A 20th-century casement window is set within the original pegged surround on the north side of the first floor, while the ground floor has a cambered casement window with the initials “WL” above it. Wooden steps lead to a plank door on the first floor, and similar windows are present on the south side. The east end incorporates a 20th-century casement window to the first floor and 20th-century garage doors to ground floor. The interior remains unaltered, including the hop press.
