Description

The former oasthouse, located approximately 140 metres south-southwest of Badsell Manor Farmhouse, is likely from the mid-19th century. The stowage area is built of English bond red brick, while the front is timber-framed and clad with weatherboards, topped with a slate roof. The hop kilns are constructed from Flemish bond red brick and feature coated brick roofs.

The oasthouse faces northeast towards the road, with an open ground floor stowage area. It includes four hop kilns: two at the back and one at each end towards the back.

The exterior features a five-bay arcade at ground floor level supported by plain timber posts on stone pads, which hold up the crossbeams. Above this, the weatherboarded section has a central loading hatch doorway flanked by two 19th-century shuttered windows. The roof is gable-ended, and each end wall has a round-headed doorway, all fitted with 19th-century plank doors. The hop kilns are circular in shape, with eaves cornices made of cogged brick and tall conical roofs that have cowls.

Inside, the oasthouse displays plain but sturdy carpentry details.
