Description

The Croft is a house dating from the early 18th century, with a mid to late 18th-century addition on the right. It is constructed of regularly coursed limestone and features a thatched roof with brick stacks. The building has a three-unit plan that has been extended to a four-unit layout. It is one storey high with an attic and has a three-window range. The entrance, located between the second and third bays, includes a 20th-century part-glazed door and an open timber porch with a thatched roof. The windows are leaded light casements, and the ground floor features three-light windows with painted wood lintels. There are swept hall-dormers with two-light casements, an end stack on the left, and two ridge stacks. The interior has not been inspected.
