Bramdean Farmhouse

Bramdean Farmhouse, now a private house, was originally built in the 17th century and was significantly altered in the 18th century. It is a timber-frame building with brick infilling, some rebuilding and encasing, and flint and brick additions, all under a single roof. The original 17th-century part of the house consists of two bays and a passage bay, along with a crosswing, with an 18th-century wing added to the other end. The front of the house, facing the garden, is two storeys and four bays. The second bay from the right is a narrow passage bay containing 20th-century French doors. To the left of this bay is a complete timber-frame construction on the first floor. All the windows are 20th century, with slight eyebrows above the irregular three-light casements in the two left bays. The right bay has a half-hipped gable end of brick, concealing the original timber frame, and features a three-light casement window on each floor. The roof is hipped at each end, with a large 17th-century three-flue stack inserted into the passage bay and another stack behind the ridge of the 18th-century wing.
