Tong House

Tong House is a 15th-century Wealden hall house that has been converted into a residence. It features a timber frame with exposed sections and plaster infill, along with part of the structure built with painted brick. The roof is covered with plain tiles. The house consists of four framed bays and has a continuously jettied wing at the right rear.

It stands two storeys tall on a flint plinth, with the left and right end bays jettied on dragon posts, while the left jetty is underbuilt. The design includes a flying wall plate supported by solid curved braces, and the roof is hipped with gablets, along with stacks located at the rear right, centre right, and projecting end left.

The windows are arranged irregularly, featuring one two-storey canted bay window on the centre left, four wooden casements on the first floor, and four glazing bar sashes along with one wooden casement in the bay window on the ground floor. The entrance door is made up of six raised and fielded panels, topped with a semi-circular traceried fan.

Inside, there is evidence of smoke blackening and a crown post roof. The original four-centred arched door surround leading to the screens passage has been relocated to the rear of the current front door. Additionally, a stack has been inserted into the hall, which originally backed onto the screens passage.
