Description
Hughenden is a house and shop that dates back to the 16th century, with extensions made in the 17th and 18th centuries. The building features a timber frame and is tile hung on the first floor, while the ground floor is constructed of red brick, topped with a plain tiled roof. It consists of two parallel ranges, with the earlier range likely serving as a hall and lacking a cross-wing, which is fronted by a 17th or 18th-century addition.
The entrance front, which is the left return facing the roadside, has two storeys beneath a half-hipped roof, with stacks located on both the left and right sides, and an oversailing hip of the cross-wing at the centre right. On the first floor, there are four three-light leaded metal casements, while the ground floor features four leaded metal and wooden casements. The central entrance door is made up of six panels and is framed by a moulded pilaster surround with an open pediment.
The right return, which faces the roadside, has a glazing bar sash window above a glazed door leading into the front range. The rear range also has a half-hipped roof, with leaded casements in the garret and on the first floor, and three large 20th-century mullioned and transomed windows on the ground floor, one of which is located in a catslide outshot to the right. A cross-wing roof at the rear connects the two ranges.
