A cruck or crook frame is a curved timber, one of a pair, which supports the roof of a building, used particularly in England. This type of timber framing consists of long, generally bent, timber beams that lean inwards and form the ridge of the roof. These posts are then generally secured by a horizontal beam which then forms an 'A' shape. Crucks were chiefly in use in the medieval period for structures such as large tithe barns.

All the character and atmosphere of medieval England are packed into Lacock's streets.The village is entirely owned by the National Trust and is a happy jumble of styles - no building is later than the 18th century and many date from two or three centuries earlier.
