Description

The Crooked House is a detached house located in Hampnett Village, dating from the late 17th century to early 18th century. It features a later cast-iron plaque dated and initialled 'S T E 1799' positioned between the first-floor windows, along with a stone date plaque displaying the same date and initials on Bradways Close. The building is constructed from coursed squared and dressed limestone, topped with a stone slate roof and ashlar stacks.

The main structure is rectangular with a later extension at right angles that projects forward to the left. The house has one and a half storeys, with the upper floor of the main body illuminated by two three-light hollow-moulded stone-mullioned windows, each with gables above. The ground floor has two similar windows, but these feature stopped hoods. A 20th-century plank door with a wooden Tudor-arched surround is located to the left. The right gable end of the main body has two 20th-century stone-mullioned windows, and the forward-facing gable end is lit by a three-light 20th-century casement window. The interior has not been inspected.
