Low Fairnley

Low Fairnley is a bastlehouse, likely dating to the 16th or early 17th century. The date 1723 above the first-floor door probably marks alterations, including the addition of an outshut to the rear. The building is constructed of random rubble, with the upper parts rebuilt in the 18th century. A ground-floor doorway from the 18th century has been converted into a window on the left side. Stone steps lead to a first-floor doorway almost centrally located, featuring a chamfered Tudor-arched surround inscribed with "1723" and the initials "Sir Walter Blackett of Wallington." Renewed 12-pane sash windows with alternating-block surrounds are present on the first floor. The roof is gabled, with end stacks. A continuous outshut extends along the rear.

The interior walls are approximately 4 feet thick. On the ground floor, there are finely-cut corbels supporting the first-floor fireplace. A large fireplace, probably from the 18th century, is located on the first floor.
