Description


1.
5272 GREAT CHART THE STREET
(north-west side)
Timber-framed building in the
south-west corner of the
churchyard of Church of
St Mary
(formerly listed as
Small Building in south-west
corner of Church-yard)
TQ 9741 24/1A 14.2.67.
II*
2.
C16 or earlier timber-framed building of one storey and 2 windows with plaster
infilling, widely overhanging eaves on brackets with sprockets above and a
hipped tiled roof. Two small red brick additions to the west. This building
seems too small to have been the pre-Reformation priest-house and too old to
have been intended for watching the churchyard. Its origin and purpose are
uncertain, Sir Charles Igglesden, in his "Saunters through Kent with a Pen
and Pencil", suggests that it was the pest-house, but its position makes this
improbable.
