Description

The Hundred House is a 17th-century house, altered in the 19th century and extended in the mid-20th century. It is now divided. The house is timber-framed and clad in painted brick, with a plain tiled hipped roof featuring gablets. A tall brick stack rises from the left end of the ridge, and a lower stack is located at the rear right. The house has two storeys and a slightly irregular four-window front with three-light wooden casements under segment-headed arches on the ground floor. A panelled door is situated beneath a two-light casement window, second from the right. A canted bay with a hipped roof extends from the north end. A tile-hung wing connects to a one-and-a-half-storey wing dating to the 18th century, which has 19th-century cladding. The interior reveals a heavy timber frame with chamfered spine-beams and run-out stops, a wide fireplace with wooden bressummers.
