Description
Longcroft Farmhouse is a farmhouse, now a house, dating from the 16th and 18th centuries, with alterations from the 19th and 20th centuries. It is constructed of painted rendered brick and features a shallow plain tile roof, a large brick ridge stack, and an external rendered gable stack on the south side, which has a stepped eaves band. The building is two storeys high and has three bays, arranged in an L-plan.
The gabled porch includes a segment-headed doorcase with small windows on either side, brick dentilled eaves, and a 20th-century glazed panelled door behind. On the south side, there is a four-light flat-headed casement window, while the north side has two similar windows, with the far north window set significantly lower. Above these, there are three similar windows, with the far north window also lower than the other two.
The rear wing, which is at right angles to the main structure, has two 19th-century flat-headed two-light casements, a gabled brick porch to the east, and two similar windows above. Inside, there are remnants of one cruck truss cut off at first floor level in the rear wing, and a square panel timber partition on the north side of the hall in the front range. Additionally, the north room features an inglenook fireplace.
