Description
Bradley Burn Farmhouse, formerly known as Low Bradley, dates from the 17th century and has 19th-century additions and alterations. The building is constructed of coursed sandstone rubble with quoins and pecked ashlar dressings, topped with a Welsh slate roof featuring ashlar and rendered chimneys with square yellow pots. It is two storeys high and has three windows in wide bays. The central boarded door has a glazed panel and is set under a flat Tudor-arched lintel with a chamfered stone surround. The windows are 16-pane sashes, with the left bay having been renewed, and they feature pecked stone lintels and painted projecting stone sills. There are blocked 17th-century windows on the first floor to the left, situated between the second and third windows. The low-pitched roof has end chimneys.
Inside, there is a chamfered wood chimney beam at the right end and a beehive oven built into the thickness of the right wall from the fireplace.
