Much of the Georgian character of this mid-eighteenth-century house has been retained, including the over-sized doorcase and entrance steps which are rather unusually located slightly off-centre in the west elevation.

When was Chiplee built?

Is Chiplee protected?
Being on the National Inventory or the Sites and Monuments Record is a record, not protection by itself: buildings are protected by their council’s Record of Protected Structures, which each council keeps and no national open list gathers, so this page can’t say which are on it.
