The Windmill Public House

The Windmill Public House is a late 16th-century building with an early 20th-century facade, located on Eyhorne Street in Hollingbourne. It features a timber-framed structure that is pebbledashed, topped with a plain tile roof. The main range has wings that project slightly forward to the right and left. The building stands two storeys high with a cellar on a painted plinth. The wings were formerly jettied, with the right jetty returning. The roof is hipped, with the right wing hipped at the front. The left wing has 20th-century shaped brackets and plain bargeboards on the gable, as well as a gable over the central window of the main range. There is a multiple brick stack on the front slope of the roof towards the left end and a slender projecting stack to the right. The fenestration is irregular, featuring five 20th-century casements: one 4-light and one 2-light in the left wing, a central 3-light and one 2-light in the main range, and one 3-light in the right wing. There are two half-glazed doors, one located in a 20th-century four-centred arched moulded stone architrave at the right end of the main range, and another under a canopy beneath the stack. The rear of the building has later timber-framed wings and a lean-to. The interior has only been partly inspected, but it includes ovolo-moulded beams in the left and central ground-floor rooms, as well as an inglenook fireplace.
