Description
Cross Lane House Hotel is a former farmhouse that dates back to the 16th century, with a ceiling added in the late 16th century and alterations made in the 19th century. The building is rendered over rubble and features a triple ridge tile roof that is hipped to the left. There is a rebuilt circular stack on the right gable end and a rendered brick stack rising from behind the ridge between the second and third bays, along with a large stack on the left.
The plan consists of an open hall with cross passage partitions, which has been ceiled to create three cells and a cross passage, and it has been extended one bay to the northeast. The hotel is one and a half storeys high and has a layout of three bays on the front and two bays on the right return. The windows are primarily late 19th to early 20th century casements, with dormers that rise from below the eaves. The ground floor features three-light windows in the outer bays, and there is a canted bay window in the center right, which has a triple ridge tile pentice roof that extends left as a porch supported by wooden trelliswork. A panelled door leads into the building.
The right return has two bays and includes some leaded iron casements. Although the interior has not been seen, it is said to contain a four-bay jointed cruck truss roof with smoke blackening, a timber-framed partition on the first floor, and two heavy stud and panel partitions in the cross passage that have been slightly altered. There is also a reset chamfered lintel above the rear fireplace in the northeast wing, which has an attached bread oven.
