Description
The Croft is a house dating from the mid-16th century, located in Hawkesbury. It is built of rubble with a double Roman tiled roof. The house is single-storey with attics and has four bays. It features 20th-century two-light casement windows, a blocked central doorway, and a 20th-century doorway to the left.
The interior retains stop-chamfered spine beams with run-out stops and stop-chamfered joists at the west end. There is a break in the joists at the east end, likely the original position of a ladder. The roof structure comprises four tie and collar beam trusses, although the collar beams have been removed, along with purlins.
Documentary evidence, rare for a vernacular building of this type, refers to a messuage in 1570, the 12th year of Queen Elizabeth's reign.
