Description

Hollingbourne House is a house built in 1798 by Charles Beazley, with later 19th-century alterations. It is constructed of white brick and has a slate roof. The building has two storeys set on a brick plinth and features an ashlar plat band. The projecting eaves have flat boxed soffits that extend across the gables. The eaves and verges create pedimented gable ends, with the central section breaking forward in two stages and slightly higher eaves. The roof has a hipped design at the inner break and a pedimented gable at the outer. There are gable end stacks and four rear stacks. A small semi-circular window is located in the central pediment gable.

The front of the house has a regular arrangement of ten recessed sash windows: three 12-pane windows on each side of the first break, two 8-pane windows in the first break, and flanking the central break which has two 12-pane sashes. The ground floor features eight 18-pane sashes that break the plinth and have gauged segmental heads. The ground floor of the first break includes two niches with recessed square panels above. All windows, except those in the first break, originally had Venetian shutters. The right gable end has a large round-arched window with Gothick glazing and an ogee-headed central panel.

At the rear, there is a panelled door with a rectangular fanlight, flanked by fluted Corinthian pilasters and topped with a triangular pediment, which is a later 19th-century addition. The interior has only been partly inspected but includes a geometrical staircase in the central rear turret and a central ground-floor room with a Soanian ceiling.
