Lower Wallop Farmhouse And Lower Wallop Farm Cottage

Lower Wallop Farmhouse and Lower Wallop Farm Cottage is a farmhouse that has now been divided. It dates from around 1670, was extended around 1812, and was partly rebuilt in the mid to late 19th century. The structure features a rendered timber frame with red brick nogging, and part of it has been rebuilt in red brick. The early 19th-century addition is made of coursed grey sandstone rubble with red brick facing on the southeast side, showing evidence of a former painted surface. The building has a slate roof that is hipped over the early 19th-century block and likely consists of two or three framed bays with an addition to the southeast.

The farmhouse is two storeys tall. The southeast front has deep eaves and features a pair of symmetrically placed brick ridge stacks, along with a brick ridge stack at the junction with the rear wing, which has two star-shaped shafts (the tops of which were rebuilt in the 20th century). The facade is arranged in a 1:1:1 bay pattern, with the center bay projecting slightly and topped by a triangular pedimented gable. It has 12- and 16-pane glazing bar sashes with slightly segmental heads, and a central half-glazed door that has two panels and six small lights. The doorcase includes an architrave, reeded pilaster strips, and reeded console brackets with guttae, though only the right-hand one remains.

At the rear, there is a central two-storey gabled staircase tower. The rear wing features 19th-century wooden casements and a gabled back porch to the northeast, with some timber framing partly exposed to the southwest. There is likely a 19th-century kitchen block in the angle at the rear. Inside, the farmhouse has early 19th-century fittings, including six-panelled doors and moulded cornices. The staircase has three flights with landings, an open string with scrolled cut brackets, stick balusters, and a handrail with a turned bottom newel post.
