Lower Broadfield and Adjoining Outbuilding

Lower Broadfield is a farmhouse, now a house, with an adjoining outbuilding. It dates from the mid-17th century and has undergone alterations in the mid-19th century and late 20th century. The structure is timber-framed with rendered infill resting on a sandstone rubble base, topped with a two-span slate roof and a brick stack at the north-east end, located at the rear of the front ridge. The building has parallel three-bay ranges aligned north-east to south-west, featuring an external rubble chimney and a circular bread oven at the south-west end of the front range. It stands two storeys tall with an attic.

The framing consists of five rows of rectangular panels extending from the sill to the wall-plate, with collar and tie-beam trusses that include struts and V-struts above the collar. On the north-west front elevation, the windows are 20th-century casements with moulded architraves. There are two 4-light windows on both the ground and first floors, along with a central 2-light window on the first floor that includes a transom light. The central entrance features a 20th-century gabled timber porch and a half-glazed 20th-century door, with attic lights in the gable ends.

The adjoining outbuilding is also timber-framed with rendered infill on a tall rubble base and has a slate roof. It likely consists of three framed bays aligned north-west to south-east and has two levels. The framing includes two rows of square panels at the upper level and similar trusses to those of the main house. The north-west end has a 4-light ground floor window, similar to those in the main house, and a loft door. The north-east end features a doorway with a right side light and two rectangular 20th-century upper-level lights. Additionally, a rubble range adjoins the north-east side, which includes an inserted garage doorway and a loft door with a raking-top roof adjacent to the main outbuilding.
