Description
Crown House is a cottage, likely dating from the mid-18th century or earlier. It features rendered, colourwashed walls and a gabled thatched roof with a brick stack at the intersection of the cross-wing. The building is two storeys high with irregular window arrangements. Most of the windows are 2-light casements with glazing bars, while the gable facing the road has a similar 4-light window. There is a 20th-century open porch at the entrance.
