Abstract:
Kent House is an early-19th century grade II-listed building which occupies a prominent position on village green in the centre of Redgrave. It is marked on the 1886 Ordnance Survey as the 'Bunch of Grapes Inn', but appears to have ceased trading early in the 20th century. The owner at the time of the tithe survey in 1846 was a 'wine, spirit and corn merchant'. The general U-shaped outline of the house and the two-storied clay-lump outbuilding to the rear is shown on the tithe map, and the latter probably served as a warehouse in addition to accommodating horses and vehicles. Unfortunately it has been extensively renovated in recent years and stripped of any original fixtures and fixtures that might have indicated its initial purpose. The upper storey is undivided and reached by an internal stair from the courtyard, while the lower storey contains a secondary privy and a modern garage along with a bread oven of circa 1900. This oven has been largely demolished but retains an impressive decorative facade of cast iron set in glazed tiles. It was inserted to serve a single-storied flint-rubble bakery that was added to the gable of the house in the mid-19th century, and is of considerable significance to the local history of the village. Despite its alterations the outbuilding is an unusual example of a substantial, two-storied clay-lump structure that may well be contemporary with the main house and continues to justify its current listing at grade II.
