Description
Croxdale Wood House is a mid-18th century farmhouse with a wing added around 1860. It is constructed of squared sandstone rubble, with the upper floor of the wing featuring dressed sandstone. The roofs are covered with Welsh slate, although the rear of the original farmhouse has stone flags. The house has rendered chimney stacks and is designed in an L-shape, with the original farmhouse and a large wing that projects at right angles to the left.
The original two-storey house has three bays and a central blocked doorway, flanked by replaced sash windows with projecting sills. The roof features a stone-coped right gable and a tall central ridge stack. The slightly taller two-storey wing also has three bays, with a nine-panel door and two-pane sidelights set in a flush ashlar surround. Other windows in the wing are replaced sashes with projecting sills. The roof of the wing has overhanging eaves and verges, which are adorned with wavy bargeboards.
On the left return of the house, there are stone-mullioned windows: a three-light window with trefoiled heads on the ground floor and a two-light window above. At the rear of the wing, there are two wide canted bays, featuring ground-floor windows with four-centred heads and 15-pane sashes, while the upper level has square-headed 12-pane sashes. Each bay is topped with a low-pitched hipped roof that has overhanging eaves supported by exposed beams. The house was extended in the mid-19th century when the Salvin family leased Croxdale Hall and moved to Croxdale Wood.
