Crown Hill Bakery

Crown Hill Bakery is a house with a shop that was later used as a public house. It dates from the early to mid-16th century and was extended in the 17th or 18th century, raised in the 19th century, and altered in the 20th century. The building has a timber frame with roughcast exterior and a machine-tiled roof. It features a four-bay, three-cell cross entry plan and stands two storeys tall. There are half-glazed doors to the right of centre in the cross entry position and to the left leading into the shop, which has a large pane window with 20th-century three-light casements. An axial ridge stack is located to the left of centre between the hall and parlour, possibly inserted in the original smoke bay, with a rebuilt capping. At the rear right, there is an added pantiled bay, and a lean-to addition at the rear centre, along with bakery outbuildings to the rear left.

Inside, much of the frame is concealed, but there are chamfered axial binding beams with an arched brace in the cross passage to the service end binding beam, traces of close studding, and a large arched brace in the right end wall. A closed truss at the lower end of the hall chamber features reverse curved arched braces and cambered tie beams. Square crown posts are present in the closed trusses at the upper end of the hall chamber and in the right end wall, with reverse curved tension braces to the tie beams and mortices for braces to the collar purlin. The eaves have been raised with a 19th-century side purlin roof.
