Description
Cranleigh Village Hospital is a hall house that dates back to the early 16th century and was converted into a village hospital in 1859 by Mr. Albert Napper, Surgeon of Cranleigh. This was the first village hospital in England. The building features a timber frame with red brick infill at the bottom and fish-scale tile hanging above. It has a steeply pitched, hipped roof covered with plain tiles and end gablets.
The original structure is one storey with an attic and has three gabled dormers with eaves. At the rear, there is a large central chimney stack. The ground floor has a diamond-pane leaded casement window on the left, a hipped roof square wooden bay in the center with arched diamond-pane lights, and a pentice extension on the left end with an additional window. To the right, there are doors leading into single-storey extensions. The building has 19th-century extensions with tall stacks at the rear, as well as 20th-century single-storey brick extensions that include the main entrance on the right, though these later additions are not of special interest.
