Dry Carr Farmhouse

Dry Carr Farmhouse is a farmhouse dated "H/JS/1771" located on Dry Carr Lane in Sowerby Bridge. It is constructed from coursed squared watershot stone and features a stone slate roof. The building has two storeys and two bays, with quoins at the corners. The openings have plain stone surrounds, and the windows are fitted with flat-faced mullions. The central entrance is a 4-panel door with a dated lintel, flanked by 4-light windows on each floor. Most of the mullions have been removed from the left-hand windows, and the upper window has had part of its cill lowered. There is also an inserted 19th-century doorway at the right end of the building. The left end features a shaped kneeler and ashlar coping, along with shouldered, tabled stacks at the left end and above the central doorway. A barn has been added to the right but is not of special interest. At the time of resurvey, the farmhouse was unoccupied and in a derelict state.
