Description
The Southwick Community Centre, originally a house known as No 24 (The Homestead), is a 17th-century building. It is constructed of coursed and uncoursed flint with red brick dressings and ashlar quoins. The roof is plain tiled and features a red brick modillion eaves cornice. At the rear, there is a tall diagonal brick stack with an oversailing cornice on the left, and a similar projecting stack at the right-hand end. The building has two storeys and a slightly irregular front with four windows. The windows are sashes, with the outer bays on the ground floor being tripartite. All ground-floor windows have segment heads. The entrance is located under the second first-floor window from the right and consists of a panelled door with deep reveals, topped by a large entablature hood on pilaster strips.
