Cragpit Farmhouse

Cragpit Farmhouse is a house that dates back to the 16th century or earlier, with later alterations. It is timber framed and plastered, topped with a red plain tiled roof. The building features off-centre left and left external red brick chimney stacks and is two storeys high. There is a three-window range of 20th-century casements. A 19th-century gabled, timber-panelled porch sits on dwarf brick walls opposite the chimney stack. Although much of the frame is covered by 18th to 20th-century decoration, the current owner has recently uncovered the two ground floor ceilings, revealing heavy stop-chamfered bridging joists and flat section ceiling beams. The large chimney stack is blocked, and one room contains an 18th or 19th-century marble fireplace.
