Description

The Crown Inn is a house that has been converted into an inn. It dates back to the 16th century and was remodeled in the early 18th century, with later additions and alterations. The building is constructed of red brick and timber frame, with most of the timber framing covered externally, and it has machine tiled roofs. It features a hall and cross-wing design and stands two storeys high with gable-lit attics. The façade is arranged in a 1:3:1 pattern.

All the windows are 20th-century leaded casements, with transoms in the central range. The ground floor windows have rubbed brick flat arches, fluted keystones, and bracketed sills. There is a projecting two-storey bay on the left, which may indicate the position of a former oriel window, and a central gabled porch added in the 20th century. The building has a plastered 18th-century modillion eaves cornice.

The cross wings feature a significant amount of planted timbering above the ground floor and late 19th-century cut bargeboards. There are prominent chimneys on the right side of the left cross wing, which have multiple stacks on a massive sandstone base, and paired stacks on the right side of the central range. The right cross wing is likely a 19th-century addition, while the left cross wing retains partial jettying and original timbering on its left side.
