Description
Cross House is an 18th-century house, with work dating to 1825 and 20th-century restoration. The front wall is of blue header brickwork with red dressings, all now painted, featuring rubbed flat arches and a moulded first-floor band. It has a tile roof. The symmetrical south front has two storeys and three windows, with sash windows and a central arched light. The early 19th-century doorway is stuccoed, with simple mouldings, a pediment, and a six-panelled door. The west end gable is of flintwork with brick quoins, cambered arches, and bands dated 1823, all now painted; a later extension is rendered and shows a fragment of timber framework. A mid-19th-century rear extension features coupled gables, rendered walls, and sash and casement windows.
