Description

Lower Green Farmhouse is a farmhouse and estate office dating from the 16th century, with a late 18th century service range that extends forward to the left, creating an L-shaped plan. The main range is timber framed, with a plastered facade and the rest faced with red brick. It features a hipped roof, primarily covered with pantiles. The service range is constructed of red brick, with a colourwashed facade; its roof has plain tiles at the front and pantiles at the rear.

The main range consists of three cells and originally had a cross-passage entry. It includes various small-paned casement windows, mostly from the mid-20th century, along with two earlier cross windows on the first floor. The eaves cornice is adorned with a plaster cove. Inside, there is an internal stack. The service range also has mainly mid-20th century casement windows. Near the junction with the main range, there is a doorway featuring an inset six-panel raised and fielded door, with the upper two panels glazed, along with panelled reveals and a shallow-pedimented cornice. The hall and parlour boast moulded floorbeams and ovolo-moulded joists with run-out stops. In the hall, there is an original panelled screen that was previously positioned against the cross-passage.
