Description
The Old Crown Public House, located on High Street in Deritend, is a historic building that is believed to date from 1368, although it is more likely from the early 16th century. It features a timber frame with plaster infill and a tiled roof. The building has two storeys, with the upper storey jettied. It consists of five bays, with the center bay projecting and featuring a gabled porch wing supported by simple modillion brackets. The outer two bays have larger, less advanced gables with carved bressummers. The ground floor includes a large central entrance, public house windows on the left, and two shop windows and doors on the right. The first floor has 19th-century three-light windows, with one on each outer gable and one on either side of the porch.
