HENFIELD THEN AND NOW

pendrells

Pendrells is another old Henfield house and stands on the north side of Neptown Road, just before the turning into Blackgate Lane. John Pendrell was the grandson of Pendrell the miller who hid the fugitive King Charles II in an oak tree after the battle of Worcester in 1651. In 1901 the occupant was 55-year old builder George Vinall.

It is described in the Grade II listing thus:

L-shaped C17 or earlier timber-framed building with red brick and plaster infilling, west front refaced with weather-boarding and tiles. Tiled roof. Casement windows. Two storeys. Two windows facing north and south, two windows facing west and three windows facing east.
