Description
The Lower Nupend is an 18th-century building with a 17th-century core. The front is constructed of brick, while behind it lies a timber-frame house believed to date from around 1600. The roof is hipped and covered with slate. The building has three storeys and features four windows per floor, each with three or four lights, wood mullions, and transoms. The upper-floor windows have segmental heads and lunettes. A six-panelled door is topped by a fanlight, a ornate pediment, and pilasters. The south ground floor room contains a plaster ceiling decorated with simple, flowing geometrical designs. Historical records (RCHM volume II, page 64, plate 44) document the property.
