MenuCroan, Cornwall
Croan (aka Croan house) is a manor house near Croanford, Cornwall. A two-story, seven-bay manor house constructed of local slate stone rubble, with a hipped slate roof and multiple stacks. It was likely rebuilt between 1696 and 1702 for a prosperous attorney, Edward Hoblyn, who died in 1704. Before the Hoblyn family, the manor was owned by the Roscarrock family, where tax records from 1664 show a Charles Roscarrock living in a substantial house with 11 hearths. The name 'Croan' comes from the Cornish word Crowyn, meaning 'little hut'. The house is within the council area of Cornwall.
