Description

Liscoe is a house from the early to mid-17th century that has been enlarged and altered. It is constructed of rendered brick and has a slate roof, standing two storeys high. The west facade features a two-bay addition on the left with windows that have plain reveals. The original two-cell house includes a central narrow stair outshut where the original entrance was located. To the left of the outshut is an additional bay with windows that also have plain reveals, while the right side of the wall is blank. There is a door in the right-hand return wall of the outshut. The chimneys are aligned with the outshut and are located on the north gable of the extension.

On the east side of the house, there are two projecting wings; the northern wing appears to be from the 19th century, while the southern wing is likely original. Between these wings, there is a partly open lean-to on the ground floor. On the first floor, there are two windows with plain reveals and segmental heads, with the right-hand window being a sash with glazing bars. The southern wing has a door with plain reveals in its east gable.

Inside, the middle room features a chamfered axial beam with shield stops and a chamfered and stopped bressumer above a hearth lined with modern bricks. The north wall of this room, which was formerly the gable, has two blocked mullioned windows made of plastered brick, both originally having six lights; the western window has been altered to accommodate a door. The house is illustrated and discussed in detail in the publication "An Early Rawcliffe House and its Contemporaries" by R.C. Watson and M.E. McClintock, found in the Over-Wyre Historical Journal, volume II (1982-83).
