Description

Crofts Bank is a 2½-storey house built of white-painted brick, featuring a slate roof with projecting eaves and end brick stacks. The front has two windows, which include three-light casement windows set beneath earlier segmental-headed openings, along with two flat-roofed three-light dormer windows. A central entrance, likely original, has been blocked off since a new entrance was added in an extension to the house, which is now obscured by vegetation.

On the right side, there is a two-window extension that is set back, featuring a higher eaves line and a lower ridge, with a brick stack on the right. This extension contains the main entrance, which has a panel door on the left and a three-light window on both storeys to the right, complete with wooden mullions and transoms. Above the doorway is a similar cross window. To the left, there is a one-storey extension with a three-light mullioned and transomed window, followed by a lean-to that has a corrugated asbestos-cement roof, a boarded door, and a three-light segmental-headed window, along with another door at the left end.

The rear of the main house has two windows, with half-lit doors inserted on the left and a segmental-headed three-light window on the right. In the upper storey, there are similar two-light and three-light windows. The later extension on the left features three-light and two-light windows like those at the front, while the one-storey extension on the right has an outshut with a four-light window and a two-light gabled roof dormer.

Inside, the older part of the house has a larger room on the right and a smaller room on the left, both with joist-beam ceilings, indicating a traditional hall and parlour layout. Behind the left-hand room is a full-height, closed-string dog-leg staircase. The upper storey rooms also feature joist-beam ceilings and boarded doors. The main entrance from the late 19th century or early 20th century extension leads into a stair hall, which includes a dog-leg staircase.
