Description
The Walnut Tree Public House is a 16th-century public house located on Yalding Hill. It is timber framed with rendered infilling and has a plain tile roof. The building consists of four timber-framed bays and is two storeys high with an attic, sitting on a stone plinth. The studding is broadly spaced and made of relatively thin scantling, featuring two tension braces in the left end bay and an arch brace in the right-central bay on the first floor. There are two arch braces on the ground floor and a gable end jetty on the left side. The roof is steeply pitched and hipped, with a brick ridge stack at the right end of the right-central bay.
The fenestration is irregular, comprising three leaded casements: a two-light window in the left end bay, a three-light window in the left-central bay, and another three-light window in the right end bay. There is a boarded door located at the left end of the right-central bay. A red and grey brick lean-to is present at the left gable end, underpinning the jetty and featuring a boarded door at the front. Additionally, there is a single-storey addition to the right, which has applied timber framing and rendered infilling. The interior has only been partly inspected, but it includes exposed framing and a brick fireplace with a wooden bressumer.
