Hamsey House Cottage Yeomans

Hamsey House Cottage, originally called Whitefields or Whitefields Cottages, dates back to 1584. This timber-framed building features plaster infilling, with the ground floor rebuilt in flints and red brick dressings and quoins. The first floor of the west front is tile-hung, and the roof is covered with Horsham slabs. The cottage has casement windows, with those on the north front consisting of two tiers of three lights, supported by wooden mullions and transoms. The north front also has a gable adorned with ornamental timbers and a moulded bressummer. In front of this gable is a two-storey projection, likely once a porch, topped with a gable that has moulded bargeboards and displays the date 1584. The sides of the projection feature ornamental timbering on the first floor. To the east, there is a 19th-century L-shaped addition made of flints. Inside, the cottage contains a 16th-century staircase and panelling.
