Croft House And Adjoining Barn

Croft House and an adjoining barn date from the mid-17th century, with a 19th-century extension and alterations. The house has walls finished with a painted roughcast texture on a battered plinth, and a roof of graduated greenslate, with stone chimney stacks. It is two storeys high and originally three bays wide, with a lower barn to the left and a rear extension forming an overall L-shape. A 20th-century door is set in a plain opening. The windows are casement windows with glazing bars; the window on the left-hand side of the ground floor is within a larger 19th-century surround. The barn has plank doors within painted stone surrounds. The extension has a plank door and sash windows in stone surrounds. Inside the house, there is an inglenook with a firebeam and a heck partition. A built-in panelled court cupboard is dated and inscribed with “IW 1665.”
