Description

This is a timber-framed building located in the south-west corner of the churchyard of the Church of St Mary. It dates from the 16th century or earlier and is a single storey structure with two windows, featuring plaster infilling. The building has widely overhanging eaves supported by brackets with sprockets above, and it is topped with a hipped tiled roof. There are two small red brick additions to the west. The building appears too small to have served as the pre-Reformation priest-house and is too old to have been intended for watching over the churchyard. Its original purpose remains uncertain; Sir Charles Igglesden, in his book "Saunters through Kent with a Pen and Pencil," suggests it may have been a pest-house, although its location makes this unlikely.
