Description
New Place is a Grade II* listed building dating from around 1480. It is an L-shaped Wealden hall-house consisting of two bays, with a 16th-century wing. The structure has two storeys and is timber-framed with close-studding and plaster infilling. The ground floor has been rebuilt in red brick, while the first floor at each end overhangs on a moulded bressumer and brackets. The central portion features coved overhanging eaves supported by curved braces, and the roof is steeply pitched and hipped, covered with tiles.
On the first floor, there are casement or swivel windows, and below, sash windows with intact glazing bars. Two of the windows retain remains of arches with moulded spandrels, which may have been moved from interior doors. The 18th-century doorcase has a projecting cornice on brackets and a door with six fielded panels. Additionally, a red brick north-east wing was added in the 18th century. Inside, the building contains dragon chamfered ceiling beams, a tie beam with a moulded post, and an 18th-century powder closet.
