Description
The Lower House is a house dating from the early and late 19th century. It is constructed with stuccoed walls, and a cornice leads to a low parapet; stone sills are present, while the north side features brick walls. The roof is tiled. The north-east front elevation is regular, with three storeys and six windows, and has been extended to the north as a two-storey, three-window section. The windows are primarily sash windows in reveals, with casements on the second floor and in the wing. A doorway has architraves, a 20th-century semi-circular hood supported by brackets, and a half-glazed door.
