Down Farm Oasts Down Farm Oasts And Fuggles Oast House

Down Farm Oasts and Fuggles Oast House is an oast house, dated 1876, converted into four houses. The building is constructed of brown brick with a boarded centre section and a plain tiled roof. It features rendered roundels, each with a tarred roof. The three-storey stowage is divided into five bays by pilaster strips extending to a corbelled cornice. The return elevations are similarly treated and divided into two bays, with moulded gables. Stacks are positioned centrally and to the right. A large gabled lucam (top window) is located above the central bay. The façade features six casements on the first and second floors (paired in the central bay) and four casements on the ground floor, with glazed doors to the centre and right. Additional doors are present on the left and right returns, leading to a large lean-to outshot with a boarded gabled gantry. A late 20th-century brick lean-to and weatherboarded extension were added to the Fuggles Oast. The rear of the building has four large roundels, each with plinths, stepped buttresses to the upper floors, and intact cowls and fantails, though large wooden casements have been inserted on all floors.
