Description
Mount Pleasant is a house located on Ranters Lane in Goudhurst. It features an early 19th-century front that is attached to a rear wing dating from the 17th century or earlier. The house has a tile-hung first floor and a red brick ground floor, topped with a plain tiled roof. It is two storeys tall, with an attic and basement, and has a plinth and a gambrel roof with chimney stacks at both ends. The building has three flat roofs and sash dormers. The windows are regularly arranged, with two tripartite sashes on the first floor and a central sash, along with two large canted bays from the late 19th century on the ground floor. The entrance features a central panelled door with a semicircular fanlight and a pediment-shaped hood supported by brackets and pilasters, accessed by a flight of four steps. There is a basement opening on the left side with a segmental head, and a catslide outshot at the rear.
