Description
White Croft is a house constructed with a timber frame and whitewashed brick panels, sitting on a rubble stone plinth. The right end wall is made of whitewashed rubble stone, and the gable is clad in corrugated iron. The house features a slate roof with a large red brick chimney positioned to the left of the center, which likely indicates a lobby entry layout.
The building is two storeys high, with the front wall displaying three panels in depth (the upper panel corresponds to a later roof height, likely an alteration from the 18th century) and eleven panels in width. From the left, there is a pair of casement windows with an iron opening light above, and a small cross-window in a projecting frame below in the third panel. A large modern timber-framed lean-to porch occupies the fifth and sixth panels, featuring a modern glazed door, with a pair of casement windows above and a cross-window below in the ninth panel, both fitted with iron opening lights. There is a small single-light window above in the tenth panel, and a pair of casement windows above a cross-window (which has been lengthened since an 1888 photograph) in the twelfth panel, also with iron opening lights.
On the right end wall, there is a cambered-headed window with a brick head and 9-pane fixed glazing on the ground floor, along with a casement pair in the corrugated iron gable. The left end wall reveals exposed framing, indicating that the roof has been raised over a single-storey timber-framed outbuilding on a rubble plinth. The front wall of this outbuilding has two panels in depth and four in width, featuring a boarded door.
Inside, the house has stopped and chamfered beams.
