Description

Lower Small Shaw Farmhouse is a farmhouse dating from the 17th century, with alterations from the 19th or early 20th century and a restoration in the late 20th century. It is constructed of coursed, squared rubble and features a renewed stone slate roof. The building has two storeys and three bays, with a chamfered plinth. The entrance, which has been restored or reset, is located in the left bay and features a cambered head. The left and central bays have two and three-light flat-faced mullion windows. The right bay, dating from the 17th century, includes a cross-window with hood-moulds on both floors, with the first-floor window being a 20th-century insertion. The gable copings are hollow chamfered and sit on shaped kneelers. A central ashlar stack with a cornice is present, and there is an added wing to the rear that is in keeping with the main structure. The right gable features a 4-light mullion and transom double-chamfered window on each floor, both with hood-moulds, and an apex finial. The interior has not been inspected.
