Description
The former Crown Public House, dating from the 18th century, features a brick front built on rubble with a tiled roof and gabled dormers. The building has two storeys and attics, with a wooden eaves cornice. On the front, there are two 19th-century two-light windows with flush frames and later glazing, along with a central blocked window. A broken brick band runs between the storeys. The ground floor has two two-light windows with slightly segmental arches, flush frames, and rudimentary brick keystones. There is a plain door set in a moulded wood frame, topped by a carved flat wood hood supported by brackets. The building has a rendered plinth and a later extension at the rear. Nos. 83 and Tomkin's Almshouses form a group.
