Description
Spital House is a farmhouse that originated in the 16th century and was largely rebuilt in the 18th century to serve as both a house and a cottage. It features red brick in English garden wall bond and coursed rubblestone, topped with a pantile roof. The building has two storeys and is arranged in a 1:2 bay configuration, with the left-hand bay being a lower cottage.
The house has a central board door with a 20th-century porch and sash windows with glazing bars, except for the ground-floor right window, which has a 20th-century casement. The ground-floor windows are topped with flat brick arches, and there are brick copings and end stacks. The cottage, which is set back, has a board door with a segmental brick arch to the right, a 4-pane sash window with a flat brick arch to the left, and a 12-pane side-sliding sash above. The cottage also features brick coping and a stack at the left end.
At the rear, the building displays late 16th-century rubblestone with quoins and shows evidence of stone mullions in the openings. The site is historically significant as it is located on the grounds of the medieval St James' hospital.
