Gryffon House

Gryffon House is a house dating from the early to mid 16th century, with significant alterations made in the early 18th century and later. It was part of the winter residence built for the Woodhouse family of Crowfield Hall. The building has two storeys and is timber-framed, with plaster on a high plinth of tarred brick. It features a hipped roof covered with plain tiles and has axial and rear chimneys made of red brick.

The main (west) elevation showcases 18th-century windows with flush frames, including three small-pane sashes from the early 18th century on the first storey and later 18th-century windows below. The entrance door, which is from the 20th century, has small panes, while another door on the south elevation, dating from the late 18th or early 19th century, has six panels.

Originally, the 16th-century structure included a two-bay hall with a service block to the right. The parlour block, now known as Old Dower House, is contemporary but structurally independent and is listed separately. The hall was initially a single storey but was later ceiled, and the main beams feature attractive roll-mouldings. The walls were raised, and a new roof was constructed in the 18th century. Some 17th-century wainscoting remains visible.
