Description
Lawns Farmhouse is a farmhouse dating from the mid-17th century. It is constructed of coursed rubble sandstone and features a renewed pantile roof. The building has two storeys and a partial cellar, with five windows on the first floor. Notable architectural details include large quoins and 20th-century part-glazed doors and casements with glazing bars.
The quoined doorway on the far right has a Tudor-arched lintel, while to its left is an altered double-chamfered surround and another unaltered opening without a mullion, which has a similar cellar window below. To the left side of the house is a quoined doorway with a plain lintel, flanked by enlarged three-light openings. On the first floor, there is an enlarged opening on the far left, a small window over the door to the right, and three two-light windows in double-chamfered surrounds, now with lowered projecting sills. The building features kneelers and square-cut gable copings, along with renewed brick end stacks and a ridge stack above the left doorway.
Inside, there is a large fireplace arch backing onto the right gable and a Tudor-arched fireplace in the room above. An extended spine beam in the central room indicates the position of a former smoke-hood. There is a single-storey wing to the rear, which is not of special interest.
