Cragg Farmhouse

Cragg Farmhouse is a farmhouse that possibly dates back to the 14th century, with later alterations. It is constructed from sandstone rubble with ashlar dressings and features an artificial stone slate roof. The building has two storeys, with a 17th-century single-storey outshut that was raised to two storeys in the 20th century, topped with a flat roof.

The front of the farmhouse has three first-floor windows, with the second and third set in slightly projecting bays. The corners of the building are marked by quoins. In the second bay, there is a part-glazed door on the ground floor, and below deep lintels are two-light casement windows. To the left of the first window, there is part of a single-light window surround, while to the right of the second bay, there is a small blocked pointed-arched single-light window, and to the right of the third bay, a small blocked ogee-arched single-light window. On the first floor, to the right of the first window, there is a blocked window with two pointed-arched lights under a single lintel. The right side of the building has ashlar coping and end stacks.

At the rear, there is a chamfered quoined doorway to the right and two blocked single-light chamfered windows on the ground floor. The right return features two blocked 19th-century openings. Inside, the front wall is very thick, especially where the bays project. The inner partitions are said to have been made of woven laths, clay, and cobbles, without lime mortar. The beams are reportedly adzed with overlapping joists, and there are two adjacent round archways of different widths in the wall between the house and the outshut on the ground floor to the left, along with a roof made of black oak timbers.
