Description
Crookham Manse is a former Presbyterian manse, now a private house, built around 1750. It was re-roofed and extended at the rear in the mid-19th century. The building is constructed of ashlar stone with a Welsh slate roof and brick chimneys. It has two storeys and five bays, featuring a square plinth and rusticated quoins. The entrance includes a panelled door set in an architrave, and there are sash windows with raised stone surrounds. The roof is gabled with flat coping and end stacks.
Inside, the drawing room showcases mid-18th century panelling, which was slightly altered in 1986. The panelling includes fielded panels with full-height panelled pilasters flanking the fireplace and a wood cornice. There is also one two-panel door and several six-panel doors, along with a number of early 19th century fireplaces. A late 19th century staircase is present as well.
To the left of the manse is an attached garden wall, approximately 8 feet high and 30 feet long. A doorway with an alternating-block surround and keystone is set into the wall.
