Description
Hart House is a small house that was once a public house, dating from the late 16th to 17th century, with alterations made in the late 18th to early 19th century. The exterior features colourwashed render over a timber frame, with the frame exposed on the first floor. The front frame includes diagonal braces, while the rear has curved braces. The left gable has been rebuilt and rendered. The roof is half-hipped and covered with 20th-century tiles, and there are flanking brick chimneys. The house is L-shaped, with one and a half storeys and two bays.
On the ground floor, there are canted bay windows with small pane wooden casements, a six-light window on the left and a four-light window on the right. The eaves-line dormers contain three-light leaded casements. The central door is framed in an early 19th-century style, topped with a wooden hood supported by cut brackets. The rear range, dating from the 17th to early 18th century, has one storey and a cellar, with an original door blocked. There is also a lean-to and a 20th-century porch in the rear angle.
