Description
The Three Crowns is an inn that dates from the mid-18th century to the 19th century. It is constructed of plastered brick and features a tiled hipped roof with brick stacks. The original building consists of three bays, with later additions made to both sides and the rear. The inn is two stories high and has a four-window front. There are doors on the right and left sides of the front, each with flat wooden hoods supported by brackets. The right side has three 12-pane sash windows, while the left side has two 16-pane sash windows and one 16-pane sash window in the center. The first floor has four 12-pane sash windows. On the left return, there are small 12-pane sash windows on either side of the door. At the rear, there are parallel ranges with hipped roofs, and some timber framing is visible in the gable. The windows at the rear are 20th-century and 19th-century casements. The interior has been altered and is not of special interest.
