Croft House

Croft House is a house built in the early 19th century, with a later addition from the 19th century at the rear. It was constructed for Thomas Taylor and features a yellow brick front and stacks in Flemish bond, with red brick used for the rest of the building. The roof is covered with Welsh slate. The house has an L-shaped layout, originally consisting of a two-room design with a central entrance hall on the east front, and a wing extending to the rear right, along with later extensions at the back.

The house is two storeys high and has three symmetrical bays. It features a Tuscan porch supported by slender columns, which carries an entablature with a moulded cornice, a flat hood, and a blocking course. The porch is flanked by pilasters that frame a half-glazed panelled door with glazing bars, set beneath a moulded lintel and an overlight with margin lights. The ground floor has unequal 20-pane sash windows with sills beneath channelled and keyed wedge lintels, while the first floor has 16-pane sashes in similar surrounds. The eaves cornice is moulded, and there is a corniced gutter. The roof is hipped, and the side walls have corniced stacks.

At the rear, the earlier section features a full-length 24-pane sash window on the front range, along with a part-glazed panelled door and an overlight with margin bars at the angle. The later addition includes a pair of round-headed sashes with glazing bars. Inside, the entrance hall boasts an ornate moulded plaster cornice, an elliptical arch with consoles and an archivolt. The stair hall has a moulded plaster cornice and an open-well staircase with a wreathed handrail, stick balusters, and profiled cheek-pieces. The front rooms have ornate cornices, and there is a fine inserted Adam-style carved wooden chimney-piece in the ground floor left room.
