Description

Lower Friar Hill Farm is a farmhouse, dated 1744, with a later addition, and now used as a house. It is constructed of watershot coursed sandstone, now waterproofed, with a stone slate roof. The roof has one chimney at the left gable and another where the roof ridges meet. The original two-bay farmhouse was extended to the right to create a loomshop, all under the same roofline.

The farmhouse is two storeys high and symmetrical. A gabled, single-storey porch projects from the front, and a moulded datestone is set in the wall above the porch, inscribed with "1 T" and below it, a projecting stone slab bearing the date 1744. There are two windows on each floor, each being a three-light casement, with one window altered. An outshut, or lean-to addition, extends from the rear of the first bay. The loomshop to the right has a mullioned window with four square lights, although a fifth is visible from inside and blocked. Above this are two square windows, with two blocked lights in between.
