Description
Craggs Farmhouse is an unoccupied farmhouse dating from around 1840, with a likely late 18th-century side wing. It is constructed of rubble sandstone and features a stone slate roof. The building is two storeys high and has a symmetrical facade with three windows on the first floor and two on the ground floor. The main house has quoins and a central panelled door with an overlight, all set within a chamfered ashlar surround topped by a square-cut hood-mould. On either side of the door are three-light chamfered, mullioned windows with raised surrounds and matching hood-moulds. The first floor has plain casements in windows that match the ground floor arrangement of three, two, and three lights. The gables have shaped kneelers, ashlar copings, and tabled end stacks. The lower side wing on the right features a three-light mullioned window of 18th-century style, beneath two casements with square-cut hood-moulds, an ashlar gutter, and an end gable with a stack similar to the main house. The interior has not been inspected.
