The Hyde

The Hyde is a house that originally dates from the late 17th century and features two bays, with two additional bays added around 1900 to 1910 on the left side, along with later 20th-century extensions flanking the building. The original section is constructed of flint with narrow brick dressings and has an old tiled roof. There is an external chimney on the right with two rebuilt diagonal brick shafts, and a group of four matching shafts from around 1900 on the left. The house likely had an L-shaped plan with later infill at the rear angle. It is two storeys high and has two gables on the front. The 20th-century paired leaded casements are set in chamfered brick surrounds, with the left bay featuring leaded French doors. The rectangular openings in the gables have been blocked and are now covered with tile-hanging. The circa 1900 gabled bays on the left are roughcast with brick dressings and matching openings. The later 20th-century extensions on the left are made of brick and flint with a hipped tiled roof, matching chimneys, and a wooden conservatory that has Gothick glazing and a glazed dome. The later 20th-century extensions on the right include a polygonal garden room made of brick and flint, as well as a small reconstructed two-bay barn from Ibstone. Inside, the original right bay features a stone fireplace with a moulded four-centre arch and a stop-chamfered spine beam.
