Description
Low Farmhouse is a farmhouse from the early to mid-19th century. It features ruled stucco and a 20th-century cement-tiled roof. The building is two storeys high and has a three by two bay layout, with a lower two-storey wing at the rear left. The corners are accentuated with rusticated quoins.
The central doorway has an old six-panelled door set within a double-chamfered surround, flanked by narrow casements that have diamond-latticed glazing bars and a shared hoodmould. The outer bays contain casements with glazing bars, arranged in tripartite, chamfered mullioned surrounds, also with hoodmoulds.
On the first floor, there is a band, a central two-light window, and flanking tripartite windows that mirror the arrangement on the ground floor. The eaves project deeply beneath a hipped roof, which has a rebuilt central brick ridge stack. The left return features two-light windows similar to those at the front, while the right return has tripartite windows like those at the front, with the ground floor window on the right showcasing old diamond-latticed casements.
