Description
No. 50 on Sheering Lower Road is a crosswing building dating from the 16th century, which has been altered in the early 19th century and extended in the 20th century. It now functions as two cottages. The structure is timber framed, roughcast rendered, and has a roof made of machine-pressed tiles.
The building is two stories high and consists of two bays aligned approximately east-west. It is likely the crosswing of a larger house that has since been demolished. The interior has been partitioned to create two separate cottages, with an external chimney stack added at each end in the early 19th century. There are single-storey lean-to extensions with slate roofs at both ends, dating from around 1900.
To the north, there is a parallel range of the same length as the crosswing, which has two stories and a flat roof, built in the 20th century. There is also a single-storey lean-to extension at the full corner. On the south elevation, the ground floor features six 20th-century casement windows and two plain boarded doors, with no openings above. The roof is half-hipped at the west end and gabled at the east. Notable interior features include jowled storey posts, stop-chamfered beams, joists with a horizontal section, and a clasped purlin roof with curved wind bracing.
