Description

Lower Kerley Farmhouse is a farmhouse that was formerly a house with two cottages, dating from the 18th century. It is constructed of painted rubble and cob, topped with a corrugated iron roof that was originally thatched. The building features gable and axial brick chimneys. The original layout consisted of a two-cell central stair plan, along with a single-cell cottage that has a side entrance on the left. There is also a one-cell addition on the right, built into the hillside, which may have been used as a store and dairy or for some semi-domestic function.

The farmhouse is two storeys high and has an irregular arrangement of four widely spaced windows. The central part of the house has a slightly irregular two-window front with a central doorway, flanked by one-window fronts of the cottage and store, each with a doorway near the party walls. The doors are 20th-century replacements in the original openings. The central house features a gable porch with a shaped bargeboard and four-pane, two-light casements. The cottage on the left has old 12-pane, two-light casements, while the cottage on the right has a two-light casement on the ground floor and a window with vertical glazing bars and random glass on the first floor. The ground and roof slope down to the left. The interior is reported to be little altered, retaining original floors and roof structure.
