{3} The Old Bakehouse: first depicted on the 1839 Culworth Tithe map.
It is north-south orientated and comprises two floors. It is constructed of ironstone with a gabled roof covered with a corrugated iron sheet. The listed building description records it as a cottage with a welsh slate roof which must have been replaced since the descripton was created. Although externally this appears as one building, internally there are two separate and unconnected elements, each with one ground floor room and one first floor room.
Detailed external and internal descriptions.
