Description
Lowbrook is a house dating from the 17th century, with alterations made in the mid-19th century and late 20th century. The building features a combination of painted sandstone rubble and timber framing with roughcast infill, topped by a machine-tiled roof. It has three framed bays arranged in a north-east to south-west alignment and includes a large external rubble chimney with a brick stack located on the north-west elevation and at the north-east end.
The house is two storeys high, with the framing displaying three rows of square panels at the first floor level. The tie-beam trusses feature two main struts and lower raking struts at the gable ends, although the roof structure was likely altered in the 19th century. The south-east front elevation showcases plank weatherings on all horizontal timbers and first floor windows. The windows throughout are all 2-light 19th-century casements.
The central entrance is highlighted by a 19th-century gabled timber porch with trellis infill, a 20th-century door, and a transom light with two glazing bars. To the left side of the house, there is a brick and rubble wing, which is a converted original outbuilding from the late 20th century, now forming part of the house. This wing is single storey with an attic and features a 2-light and a single-light 20th-century casement, along with two doors on the front elevation.
