Description
Crow Trees is a house built in 1690, with some alterations made later. It is constructed of slobbered rubble and has a slate roof. The building has two storeys and four bays. The windows are rebated and chamfered with mullions, featuring two lights in most windows, except for those in the second bay, which have three lights. A single-storey gabled porch in the third bay appears to have been added around 1900. This porch has a re-set West cyma-moulded door surround with a battlemented lintel inscribed with 'HIW 1690'. Above the door is a shield carved with a slung horn. The house has gable chimneys, with the right-hand chimney projecting at the first-floor level on stone corbels. The right-hand gable wall features two one-light rebated and chamfered windows on each floor. The interior was not accessible at the time of the survey, but it is reported to contain no features of architectural interest.
