Description

Middle Small Shaw is a house dating from the late 18th century. It features watershot masonry with dressed quoins and a stone slate roof. The building is two storeys high and has three bays of flat-faced mullioned windows on the south front. There is a six-light window above, which is missing two mullions, and a small window above that, which is a four-light window also missing two mullions. The gables are coped with kneelers. On the left-hand return wall, there is an original gable entry doorway with monolithic jambs, although this has been blocked and replaced by a doorway with a tie-stone jamb in the rear outshut, which has a substantially rebuilt lean-to roof from the mid-20th century. The building retains flat-faced mullioned windows and has three stacks on the ridge, two of which have a cavetto moulded cornice.
