Description

Forge House is a house dating from around 1700, located on the north side of Buckhurst Road in Frittenden. The exterior features red and blue brick, with rendered return elevations, tile-hung gables, and a weatherboarded rear wing. The house is two storeys high, built on a plinth with low buttresses at the corners. It has a three-course plant band that settles at both the left and right ends, and a half-hipped roof. There is a stack at the left end and a large projecting double offset stack in an irregular band at the right end.

On the front, there are two three-light wooden casement windows on each floor, with the ground floor windows having segmental heads and being offset from those above. There are also blocked segmentally headed doorways to the left and right of the centre. The current entry is through a half-glazed door located in the right return, which is sheltered by a glazed and raking 20th-century porch. The house features gabled wings at the rear.
