Description

Pett Bottom Farm is a farmhouse, now a house, dating from the late 17th century or early 18th century. It features painted brickwork, with a mix of English and Flemish bond on the front elevation and English bond at the rear. The roof is covered with plain tiles and has a hipped design. The building has a lobby-entry plan, with one room on each side of the central stack, and is two storeys high. There is a plat band and a multiflue brick stack located towards the centre of the roof. The front has a regular arrangement of three windows, consisting of two two-light casements and a central four-pane light. The ground floor includes two two-light casements with segmental relieving arches. A boarded door is set within a central late 19th-century painted brick porch, which has lobed bargeboards and a gabled plain tile roof. To the left, there is a painted brick lean-to. The interior has not been inspected.
