Description
The gate piers at Hartfield date from around 1830 and consist of a two-storey structure with three wide bays, where the outer bays are slightly advanced to create a shallow U-plan. The building is constructed from coursed tooled rubble with tooled dressings. The central bay is recessed and features a pilastered door-piece with narrow flanking lights, along with three closely set windows above. Each of the outer bays has a single window on both floors, although the central window on the first floor is blind. Both side elevations contain three windows on each floor, all with 12-pane glazing.
The structure includes an eaves band and a moulded eaves cornice, as well as shouldered corniced end stacks and a small centre wallhead corniced stack. The roof is piended and covered with slate.
Additionally, there is a single-storey and attic, three-bay wing at the rear, which has a central door and a projecting timber porch. The garden is enclosed by a coped rubble wall, and there is a simple coped enclosing wall with a pair of tooled monolith gate piers.
