Description
The building is an oasthouse located immediately northwest of Badsell Park Farmhouse. It is currently used as an office and tea room associated with a farm trail. The structure includes an early 19th-century kiln, a storage area, and a second kiln that is likely from the early 20th century. The storage area features English bond brick on the ground floor and is weatherboarded above, topped with a peg-tile roof. The early 19th-century kiln is made of Flemish bond brick and has a tarred roof, while the 20th-century kiln is constructed from Flemish bond brick with an asbestos slate roof.
The oasthouse is situated next to the farmhouse and faces west. The cylindrical early 19th-century kiln is located to the north, while the rectangular 20th-century kiln is to the south. The cylindrical kiln has a conical roof and a timber cowl, while the rectangular kiln features a hipped roof with a ventilator along the ridge. The west front of the storage area has original paired plank doors in the center, a central loft door above, and is flanked by original top-hung three-light casement windows. The rear elevation retains three original top-hung casements on the first floor. The rectangular kiln has paired 20th-century doors at the west end and two first-floor doors on the south side.
The interior has not been inspected. This building is included for its group value with Badsell Park Farmhouse.
