Description

Brunton House is a house dating from the late 17th and early 18th centuries, located in Collngbourne Kingston. Constructed primarily of brick with flint panels, it has a tiled roof. The house is two storeys high with an attic and cellar, and originally comprised seven bays. A Tuscan portico shelters a central pair of doors. The windows are twelve-paned sashes, with the central windows spaced closer together, all with gauged brick lintels. Timber coved eaves run around the building, and the roof is hipped with gable stacks. A brick loggia was added in the early 20th century to the south gable, set above a datestone that reads "1692 W V." A lean-to extension is present on the left side of the building.

The interior features a wide entrance hall with bolection panelling and panelled doors. The dining room to the left has 18th-century panelling, while the parlour on the right is similarly decorated. A staircase in the rear hall, dating from the late 17th century, has shallow steps and balusters to the handrail, with the balusters varying in design on the upper flight. The first floor retains 17th-century panelling, and a corniced doorhead with a pulvinus is found at the head of the stair. The house demonstrates group value as an exceptionally well-preserved example of its period.
