Description

Longcroft is a former house and adjoining barn, dating from the mid-18th century and possibly earlier. It is constructed of watershot hammer-dressed stone and squared rubble, topped with a graduated stone slate and slate roof. The building originally had a single-depth, two-storey design but was likely expanded to a double-depth and three-storey structure in the later 18th century.

The house features a door with a square-cut stone surround, a three-light window on the ground floor, and four-light windows on the first and second floors, all with recessed cavetto-moulded mullions. There are gable-end chimney stacks, one of which is rendered. The central door in the gable also has a square-cut surround, accompanied by one- and two-light windows and a small brick lean-to extension. The opposite gable has blocked windows. The rear of the house includes a similar door and three-, six-, and four-light recessed flat-faced stone mullion windows with king mullions.

The former barn, which predates the house, has a roof that runs at right angles to the house and features a small single-storey addition at the front. It has recessed flat-faced mullion window openings and two blocked double-chamfered lights in the gable at attic level.
