Croys Grange

Croys Grange, formerly known as Bridgefoot Farm, is a house dating from the late 16th century and the mid-19th century. It is two storeys high, timber framed, with external plaster, although the ground floor is partly encased in red brick. The building has gabled roofs covered with peg tiles and features an 'L' shaped plan with an additional large, single-storey gabled bakehouse block and a hipped lean-to on the eastern end.

The front of the house, which was refaced in the 19th century, has a ground floor of red bricks and imitation timber framing. It includes two gabled bay windows with contemporary orolo mullions and leaded lights. There is an off-centre gabled porch supported by arch-braced collars and turned posts on a red brick plinth. A gabled projection at the eastern end has similar detailing, while the western end is jettied. The building has an off-centre rebuilt concertina stack and a smaller original stack that projects through the roof of the bakehouse.

The rear of the house features some old pargetting and a mix of timber casements and old cast iron leaded light casements. Inside, the layout reveals two separate houses at right angles to each other. The eastern unit, which is slightly earlier and faces the road, has a smaller stack serving the service end. This area may have had an open hall and features a soffit tenon with a diminished haunch floor and large tie beam braces. The roof here is supported by side purlins with wind bracing, and these, along with other wall braces, have a distinctive 'cranked' form. The other unit is fully floored and has curved external bracing. The stack creates a 'baffle entry' and has a tunnel through, similar to Breach Farm. The roof of this unit is a clasped side purlin design.
