Description

Dodd's Charity is a house dating from the early to mid 18th century, located in Great and Little Kimble, Kimblewick. The left bay is constructed of irregular red and vitreous brick with red quoins, while the right bays are made of vitreous brick with red dressings. There is a partial band course of gauged and moulded brick. The roof is made of old tiles, half-hipped, with a shaped gable on the right side. A small brick chimney is situated on the left, and a larger external brick chimney is located at the rear of the right bay.

The building has two storeys and an attic, featuring three bays. The windows are 4-pane sashes with gauged segmental heads. The central entrance consists of a narrow flush-panelled door with a rectangular fanlight and a similar head above. There is a blocked opening on the ground floor between the right bays, with a blind window above it. The right end of the house has a moulded brick cornice and two bays of windows with gauged segmental heads; the lower right window has a 4-pane sash, while the others are blind. In the attic, there is a 3-light barred wooden casement. At the rear, there is a lean-to.

Inside, there is a central staircase featuring mid 18th century turned balusters, Tuscan column newels, a moulded handrail, and a closed string.
