Description
Croucheston House is a late 18th-century farmhouse, altered in the mid-19th century. It is constructed of banded brick and flint, with a refronting in yellow Flemish bond brick, and has a hipped tiled roof with brick stacks. The building is arranged in an L-shape, with a pair of rear wings. The south front is two-storey and has four window bays with four-pane sashes on both the ground and first floors. The left return features a door with six fielded panels, covered by a flat wooden hood supported on brackets. There is also a two-light casement and three 16-pane flush sashes with keystones to the first floor. The right return has a single-storey outhouse attached to the main range. The rear wing has a pair of four-pane sashes, a steel casement, a planked door, and a half-glazed door set within a tiled porch. A four-pane and a 16-pane sash are present on the first floor. The rear of the wings has half-hipped roofs, and another single-storey outhouse is attached to the west wing. Inside, the house retains some original 18th-century doors with six fielded panels in moulded architraves, window shutters, a staircase with stick balusters and a Tuscan newel, and a chamfered beam in the kitchen.
