Description

East Shaws Farmhouse is a substantial farmhouse dating from the mid-18th century, with a garden front that likely faces an early 19th-century entrance front. The building is constructed from roughcast sandstone rubble with dressed quoins and features a two-span roof covered with sandstone flags. The chimneys are mainly rebuilt in brick.

The garden front is two storeys high and has five bays. It includes raised and chamfered quoins and window openings with stepped and raised surrounds. On the ground floor, there is a part-glazed six-panel door located in the second bay from the left, along with three six-pane sash windows. The first floor has four 16-pane sash windows and a six-pane sash window to the right. The roof is steeply pitched, with a low coped gable parapet and shaped kneelers, and it has two end stacks and one ridge stack.

The entrance front is also two storeys and features five irregular bays. Most of the fenestration has been renewed, except for two 16-pane sash windows and a round-arched mid-wall staircase window. This front has a low-pitched roof with flat-coped gables and includes two end stacks and one ridge stack.

Attached to the left of the entrance front is a wall approximately 3.5 metres long, which runs north and features a semicircular arch with a raised keystone, impost blocks, and wide coping.

There are single-storey outbuildings attached to the right return of the entrance front, but these are not of special interest.
