Description

Wildcroft is an early 19th-century house located on Main Street in Harborough Magna. The building is constructed of brick in Flemish garden wall bond and features a slate roof with stacks at the end. To the left, there is a wing with a tile roof and a single brick stack. The house is two storeys high and has a three-window range. The entrance includes a four-panelled door set within a plain surround. The main range has 24-pane casement windows, although the left central light on the ground floor has been replaced. The left wing has a plank door within a plain surround and a 20th-century brick porch, with 18-pane casements on both the ground and first storeys. The main range has a brick plinth and a brick storey band, along with a nogged brick eaves cornice. Inside, there are original panelled doors, fireplaces, and cupboards.
