Description
Kentisbury Village Hall is a village hall that was formerly a school, built around 1870. It is constructed of unrendered stone rubble with ashlar dressings and features a slate roof with crested ridge tiles. The building consists of a single room main range that is gable-ended at the front, with a smaller gable-ended lobby projecting at right angles from the left side, creating a T-shaped plan. There is a lean-to porch at the hall side entrance in the front angle, and the structure is single storey.
All the windows have pointed arched lights, with stepped three-light stone mullion windows located at the gable ends of both the main range and the lobby projection. The windows in the main range are set within pointed arched surrounds. On the right-hand side of the main range, there are two large transomed windows with hipped dormer roofs, each containing three lights. A buttress between these windows features a moulded ashlar sill band that extends to each side. The upper part of the lean-to porch has open timber framing, supported by short chamfered timber posts and shaped raking struts that form an entrance archway.
Inside, the main range has an arch-braced timber roof that springs from moulded stone corbels.
