Hensill And Courtyard Buildings And Walls Attached To Rear

Hensill is an early 19th-century house located on Hensill Lane in Hawkhurst. It is built from sandstone blocks and features a slate roof, with red brick used for the rear walls and outbuildings. The house stands two storeys high with an attic, resting on a plinth. It has a plat band and a moulded cornice parapet above a hipped roof, which has projecting and offset stone stacks at both ends, with rendered flues.

The front of the house has a regular arrangement of windows, with three glazing bar sashes on the first floor and two on the ground floor, all featuring cambered heads. The central entrance door consists of three moulded panels and is topped by a traceried semi-circular fanlight, set within a Doric porch that has four moulded steps. There are dormer windows on the rear elevation.

At the back of the property, there is a courtyard enclosed by stone and red brick walls approximately eight feet high, along with a coach house and outbuildings that are two storeys tall, featuring irregular casement windows and boarded doors. A 20th-century conservatory is currently under construction on the rear left side of the main house.
