Description

St Stephen's Bede House and The Crypt is a house with a separate dwelling on the lower floor, dating from the 17th century with some alterations. It is constructed of herringbone-tooled coursed sandstone and features a pantile roof with stone copings and kneelers, along with a brick stack. The building has three storeys and three bays, which are very irregular in arrangement.

The crypt has a two-panel door, with a small low window to the right. To the left, five windows are blocked and decorated to resemble a small grotto. There is a fire window on the first floor above, along with four very small openings, the two middle ones being higher. The second floor has a similar pattern of openings. Most windows are modern, except for a small Yorkshire sash window on the top floor. The right end stack has been rebuilt at the top.

The entrance to St Stephen's Bede House is located on the left return gable end, featuring a 19th-century two-panel door beneath a 20th-century gabled wood hood supported by long brackets. A modern door plaque indicates a date of 1633. There is a very small inserted light above and a small roughly chamfered attic window. A small rendered addition on the left is not of special interest, nor are the small front projections.
