Croghan House

Detached T-plan five-bay two-storey house over basement, built c.1770, having two-storey nineteenth-century addition and later single-storey flat-roof extension to rear. Slate roofs, hipped to main roof, pitched to return and early extension and having rendered chimneystacks. Cast-iron rainwater goods and bracketed eaves. Rendered walls. Timber sliding sash windows, two-over-two pane to main house and six-over-six pane to return, and recent replacement uPVC windows to single-storey rear additions and to basement, all with limestone sills. Bay window to south elevation of main house. Timber panelled door in limestone block-and-start doorway with limestone lintel and plain fanlight and approached by limestone steps. Single-storey stone outbuilding having pitched slate roof and brick surrounds to openings.

A well-maintained house retaining many original exterior features, most notably the cut-stone elements of the doorway, sills and steps and the lime render. The form and character of the original T-plan house are easily recognizable, while the nineteenth century additions such as the rear block and bay window illustrate the continued use of this house over several centuries.
