Crossgate House, School Road, Coldingham

Crossgate House, located on School Road in Coldingham, is likely an 18th-century building that has undergone later additions and alterations. It is a two-storey, three-bay rectangular house with a single-storey, three-bay ancillary structure attached at the rear, as well as additional single-storey ancillary structures at the front and a separate single-storey range on the west side. The exterior features whitewashed harl with rendered dressings, quoin strips, a chamfered corner to the southeast, and projecting cills throughout.

On the north (entrance) elevation, there is a boarded timber door centered at the ground level, sheltered by a consoled canopy. A single window is aligned above on the first floor, with additional single windows on both floors to the left and a single window in the right bay at ground level, with a bipartite window above. To the right, there is a projecting single-storey range.

The east (side) elevation displays a two-bay gable end with single windows at ground level, a single window on the first floor to the right, and squat attic lights in both bays above. An exterior stair on the left leads to a first-floor entrance and a flat-roofed block that connects the house to the rear ancillary structure.

The windows are made of timber sash and case with plate glass and 12-pane glazing, although some have been replaced with modern versions. The roof is steeply pitched and covered with pantiles, featuring crowstepped gables and moulded skewputts, including a carved head at the southeast corner. Brick-built apex stacks with various circular cans are also present.

The interior was not seen in 1999.

The ancillary structure at the rear is built of harl-pointed rubble with rubble and red brick dressings. Its east (entrance) elevation has a boarded timber door centered at the ground, while the south (garden) elevation features single windows in all three bays. This structure has a pantiled mono-pitched roof and cast-iron rainwater goods. The interior was not seen in 1999.

At the front, there are flat-roofed single-storey ancillary structures, including one to the northwest and a lower gabled structure with a corrugated-iron roof attached to the northeast. The interiors of these structures were also not seen in 1999.

The site is partially enclosed by rubble boundary walls.
