Description
This building is a farm structure located approximately 20 meters south of Croyde Farmhouse. It was originally a bakehouse and later served as a cider house, but is currently used as a potato store. The building dates from the 17th century and features roughly coursed rubble with cob on the upper storey. It has a corrugated iron roof that is pantiled at the rear. The building has a rectangular plan with a short gabled projection at the rear, creating a T-shape, and consists of two storeys.
External stone steps lead to a plank door, and the doorway at the base of the steps has an ovolo-moulded lintel. The upper part of the stack has been demolished and is now concealed by the replacement roof covering. Inside, there is a wide fireplace with a chamfered lintel, which is partly hidden by a cider press. The structure also includes a single roughly hewn truss.
