Description
Craythorne Hall, now including Craythorne Grange, is a large house that dates from the mid-19th century and has undergone some 20th-century alterations. It is constructed of sandstone ashlar, which is chisel draughted at the porch, with dressings and raised quoins. The roof is hipped and covered with slate, featuring a low pitch and corniced eaves, along with brick side stacks. The building has a complex, roughly rectangular plan.
The entrance front faces south and is two storeys high with two windows. It has a raised band at the first-floor level and a plinth. The windows are glazing bar sashes. To the left, there is a projecting wing with one window, while to the right is a slightly taller and narrower projecting wing that has an Italianate style, resembling a tower. This wing features a paired round-arched window with labels on the capitals, and there is a balustraded balcony at the first floor.
The central recess includes a cast iron balustraded porch with a frieze and paired Tuscan columns that align with the faces of the adjoining wings. Within the porch, there are two small round-arch windows flanking the central entrance, which has an architrave and part-glazed double doors. Although the house appears to have several different construction dates, the parts are very similar, suggesting that the design aimed to create the impression of an evolving development.
