Description

The Crown Public House is an early 19th-century building located at 109 Bensham Road, forming the end of a terrace where the other houses have been altered. It is constructed of red brick and features a hip-ended Welsh slate roof with brick chimneys. The rear wall is made of rubble stone. Notable stone dressings include an eaves cornice and frieze, a first-floor band, a plinth, cills, and lintels. The building stands three storeys high and has one wide bay, with a later 19th-century extension to the right for the public house.

The windows are sash style, some of which have glazing bars. The public house has an attractive arcaded front. On the corner at the first floor, there is a well-carved stone plaque that reads: ROMULUS TERRACE.
