House. 1762 remodelling a house of c.1740 for Peter Fector, banker and merchant of Dover. Red brick and mathematical tiles with plain tiled roof. Twin span roof to two parallel ranges. Three storeys on plinth with parapet to hipped roof with stacks to left and to right. End left and end right window bays recessed slightly. Six square wooden casements on second floor, six glazing bar sashes on first floor and five on ground floor all with gauged heads with painted keystones. Moulded panelled door to centre right in segmentally headed stone surround with moulded base.
Interior: fielded panelling in downstairs and upstairs rooms and original stair with dado panelling. Plain marble fire places all reported. Hasted devotes a lengthy eulogy to the house, its site and its builder. At some time also the dower house to Betteshanger Court, and residence of Nico Llewellyn Davis, with his brothers the inspiration and dedicatee of Peter Pan.
