Crow Plain Oast

This is an oast house, dating from around 1850, originally part of Crow Plain Farm. It consists of a two-storey stowage with two west kilns added around 1850, and a northern kiln added circa 1880. The side and rear walls of the stowage and kilns are of red brick, while the front wall of the stowage is weatherboarded. The kiln roofs are tiled, and the stowage roof is now clad in corrugated iron sheeting.

The stowage has five bays, with a single window to the side facing the road and to the rear. The front has a weatherboarded upper floor and an open ground floor supported by chamfered timbers resting on stone padstones. A wooden external staircase leads to the first floor. Three circular kilns are attached to the stowage, each with a dentil cornice and a cylindrical tiled roof, featuring an unusual ventilation course. The roofs are topped with fibreglass cowls and wooden fantails, carved with a crow painted black, referencing the oast house's name. Early 20th-century wooden staging is attached to the south and west sides. A former one-storey open cart shed, also of brick and now with a corrugated iron roof and a filled-in front wall of breezeblocks, is attached to the east.

Inside the stowage, the roof is a queenpost construction with purlins and a ridgepiece. A lattice screen is present to the east, and the front wall is stencilled with numbers indicating the hop pockets produced each year, dating back to 1957. A 20th-century hop press is also present. The kilns retain slatted drying floors, and arched entrances lead to the ground-floor plenum chambers.
