Description
Crouds Farmhouse is a detached house dating from the 17th century and later. It is built of local lias stone that is cut and squared, with Ham stone dressings. The roof is thatched with a coped east gable, while the westward extension features double Roman clay tiles and a plain gable. A brick chimney stack is present. The house has two storeys and four bays with irregular fenestration. The first two bays are a 20th-century addition with casement windows, including an upper window in a gabled dormer between these bays. The remaining bays have early timber casements, mostly three-light, with some rectangular leaded panes and internal vertical iron bars. Bay three features a 20th-century boarded door within an open timber porch. The east gable showcases hollow chamfered mullioned windows set in wave-mould recesses under square labels, with a two-light window below and a four-light window above, both having rectangular leaded panes and internal vertical iron bars. The interior has not been seen.
