Crawshaw Hall

Crawshaw Hall is a farmhouse, likely dating back to the 16th century or earlier, with a later wing added in the 19th century. The listed building is the remaining west wing of what was once a larger house. It is constructed of sandstone rubble, with large stone quoins. The rear of the building is roofed with stone slates, while the front has slate.

The original section has three bays and two storeys, although the first bay is hidden by the 19th-century wing. The entrance is in the second bay, and the doorway opening has been reduced. Above the entrance is a small, single-light window with chamfered jambs. The third bay is characterised by a large, irregularly stepped chimney stack, which continues above the eaves with modern brick. The left gable features a ground-floor two-light stone mullion window, though the mullion has been removed.

The rear wall has visible vertical joints to the second bay, above which is a timber wall plate with one mortice. To the left of the joint line is a low, blocked doorway, and at the left and right ends of the first floor are blocked single-light windows.

Inside, the walls are exceptionally thick. The interior contains a uniform series of seven large stop-chamfered spine beams, with run-out stops to the ends, the first and last abutting the gable walls. There is also a timber-framed partition wall, fine roof timbers including cambered tie beams with raking struts, and wind bracing.
