Description
No. 87 Lower Radley is a farmhouse that has been converted into a house. It dates from the late 16th century, with an early 18th-century front block. The front is constructed from coursed limestone rubble, with brick quoins and dressings on the first floor. It features a hipped roof covered with old tiles and a brick stack at the left end. The building has a two-unit plan and stands two storeys high, with a three-window range.
The central entrance has a segmental brick arch above a 19th-century four-panelled door. The outer bays contain early 18th-century wood-mullioned cross windows with iron fittings, while there is a 20th-century one-light window to the right of the centre. On the first floor, there are flat brick arches over two 20th-century one-light windows and similar early 18th-century cross windows in the outer bays. The building features a raised brick storey band and dentilled eaves. At the rear, there are two cross windows, and to the left, there is a one-storey service range made of similar materials, which includes a bread oven and an 18th-century cross window with a turnbuckle.
The late 16th-century two-storey rear wing is rendered over a timber frame and has a gabled roof with old and 20th-century tiles. A stone end stack, finished in brick, is adjacent to the front range, and a stair-turret projects from the right side wall. Inside the front range, there are two early 18th-century panelled doors and a framed dog-leg staircase with winders. The rear range showcases exposed timber framing, stop-chamfered beams, and a chamfered bressumer with stone jambs to the first-floor fireplace, which is next to a rebuilt newel stair. The stairs lead to stop-chamfered and moulded doorframes, one of which retains its original plank door, and the staircase features an original newel post and two late 16th-century splat balusters at the attic level.
