Description

Cross House is a house built in the early 19th century, with some minor later alterations. It is constructed of rendered brick and features a painted stone first floor sill band. The roof is shallow pitched and covered with 20th-century concrete tiles, and there are rendered gable stacks. The building has three storeys and three bays. The central entrance has a pilastered doorcase with a panelled door and a traceried fanlight, flanked by glazing bar sash windows. On the first floor, there are three similar sash windows, and above them, there are three smaller sash windows.
