Description
Dane Chantry, originally called Deppdene, is a building founded in the 15th century by Dom William Gracian, the founder of the Poor Priests Hospital in Canterbury. The lower part of the southernmost window bay is faced with flints, and there is an east doorway leading to the Undercroft. Above this, the building features red brick with a gable that has two small attic windows. The rest of the structure is a timber-framed addition, which may date from 1638, as indicated by the stone four-centred doorway with carved spandrels that bears this date. The base is made of flints with herring-bone pattern brick nogging, and the first floor overhangs, supported by the protruding ends of the floor joists and brackets. The windows are casements with wooden mullions and transoms, except for the southernmost window bay on the first floor, which has two tiers of five lights with stone mullions and transoms. There are two oriel windows projecting on brackets on the first floor and one bay window below. The building has a hipped tiled roof and consists of two storeys with four windows.
