Description
Krone House is a house that features elements from the 18th and 19th centuries, but likely has a core that dates back to the 17th century or earlier. It is timber framed with a painted brick facade and has a red tiled roof. A red brick chimney stack is located on the left side of the building. The house has a moulded and dentilled eaves cornice and a central band. It stands two storeys high and has two windows that feature vertically sliding sashes with glazing bars, all set in moulded surrounds. The central entrance consists of a 20th-century plank and muntin door, which is sheltered by a flat canopy over a recessed arch that has a keystone.
