Description

Nut Tree Hall is a house dating from the 16th century, which features a continuous jetty design. It was restored and altered in the early 20th century by Charles Harrison Townsend for Sir William Allchin, who was the physician to Edward VII. The north front has a stone plinth with close-studded timber-framing above, filled with plaster. The continuous jetty is supported by exposed joists and brackets, stepping down under the right-hand gable. The roof is plain tiled with return gables at both ends, a ridge stack to the right, and a hipped semi-dormer in the center. The gables have scalloped barge-boards. The house has two storeys and three windows with diamond lattice casements, along with small rectangular oriels under the jetty at each end.

On the east front, the close-studded framing continues, with the left-hand section likely being a later addition. This side has two storeys and an irregular two-window front, also with diamond lattice casements. The entrance is located on the ground floor to the right and is glazed.

Inside, the hall features brought-in panelling. The dining room includes a 16th-century fireplace with chambered bressumers and brought-in panelling with a low reeded cornice. The sitting room has a first-floor gallery added around 1905 by Townsend. The drawing room contains a 16th-century fireplace with a chamfered bressumer. Additionally, there is a crown post in the first-floor room at the north-west corner, which supports the roof of the right-hand return gable of the north front.
