Description

Croft Farmhouse and byre is a cross-passage house dated 1691, featuring a wet-dashed front and a graduated slate roof with stone chimneys at the middle and west end. The building has two storeys and three bays. The central entrance includes a part-glazed door flanked by two 16-paned sash windows. On the first floor, there are two additional 16-paned sashes above the ground-floor windows. The byre has a planked door to the right with a flat triangular head and a chamfered stone lintel. Above this door, there is a 16-paned sash with a square initialled datestone beneath the sill. Steps lead up to a loft door, with a segmentally-headed byre door directly below it. Inside, there is a panelled partition between the bedrooms and a dated cupboard from 1703.
