Lower Bottomley Farmhouse And Attached Barn

Lower Bottomley Farmhouse is a house from the mid 17th century, accompanied by an attached barn built in the early 19th century. The structure is made of thin coursed hammer-dressed stone, with some parts rendered, and features a stone slate roof. The farmhouse consists of two cells, with a two-storey front and a single-storey aisle at the rear.

The southeast front showcases chamfered mullioned windows, including a four-light window with a three-light window above it on the first floor, a five-light window on the main body of the house, and a two-light fire-window with a three-light window above on the first floor. The barn has quoins at its junction and a segmental arched cart entry. The rear of the farmhouse features two chamfered mullioned windows with two lights in the aisle, both of which are missing their mullions. There is also evidence of two gable stacks that have since been removed.

Inside, the farmhouse has a scarf-jointed spine beam and signs of a former bressumer. There is a close-studded wall on the first floor at the arcade plate point where the housebody opens to the aisle. The girding beam is graved on the underside, and there is a king-post truss. The barn obscures the original gable entry next to the fire-stack.
