Description

Lower Tye Farmhouse and attached outbuilding is a farmhouse and outbuilding dating from the early 19th century, with 20th-century alterations and restoration completed in 1988. The structure is built of red brick with blue-brick headers, featuring Flemish bond on the front and rear and Sussex bond on the returns. The outbuilding is constructed of brick in Stretcher bond and has a plain tile roof. The farmhouse is two storeys high with two bays and consists of two parallel ranges beneath a pitched roof. There is a one-storey, one-bay outbuilding attached to the left side of the house. The building has a cemented plinth and a central entrance with a late 20th-century door and a gabled Tuscan porch. The windows are late 20th-century, two-light, small-pane designs set in openings with projecting sills and segmental brick arches on the ground floor. The eaves are stepped and dentilled, and there are end stacks.

The outbuilding features rebuilt stepped, dentilled eaves and a hipped roof. At the rear, there is a single-storey gabled addition from the 1950s, which is not of special interest. The central old two-panel door has a wooden frame and hood, and there are two segmental-arched windows to the right, consisting of two and one lights, along with two two-light, four-pane windows set under the eaves. The eaves are also stepped and dentilled, and there is an end stair to the right. The outbuilding has a boarded door.

Inside, the ground floor of the front range, which was formerly two rooms, includes a small brick fireplace at the right end and a larger fireplace with a timber bressummer at the left end. The fireplace in the rear left room has a bread oven on the left side and a former set-pot on the right side, which has been removed. The first floor features old doors, with the principal front rooms having two-panel doors and cupboards with clothes pegs flanking the fireplaces.
