Description
The Crown Public House is a hostelry from the early 18th century. It features painted brick with a sarsen stone wall at the rear and has a tiled roof. The building is two stories tall and has three bays, with an additional three bays on the return to The Green. Originally, the layout included a central hallway and domestic quarters at the back, but it has since been made open plan.
The entrance consists of a six-panelled and fielded door located in the center, accessed by three rounded steps. Above the door, there is a corniced canopy supported by carved brackets. The ground floor has flanking tripartite 12-pane sash windows, which are topped with gauged flat brick arches and a keystone. On the upper floor, there are 12-pane sash windows, with a central blind panel situated above the door. The eaves are decorated with brick dentils. The side elevation features 18-pane horizontal sliding sash windows. The roof is hipped at the right corner, with a chimney stack on the left gable and another stack positioned between the first and second rear bays.
