Description

The Old Crown is a house dating to the 17th century, originally the Crown Inn. It is constructed with a timber frame and rough cast rendering, set beneath an old clay tile roof. The building follows a T-plan, with a main block and a projecting cross-wing. The front features a door with a gabled hood supported by cut brackets, and a three-light casement window with glazing bars. The cross-wing has a 19th-century canted bay window on the ground floor and a two-light casement window to the attic floor. A red brick double ridge stack is located on the main block. The roof is characterised by four bands of fishscale tiles. A lean-to addition is present on the east gable end, and other later additions are visible at the rear, all constructed from colour-washed brick.
