Lower Lamellion Farmhouse And Attached Garden Wall And Railings

Lower Lamellion Farmhouse is a mid-19th century building that was originally a public house and is now a private residence. It is depicted on a print from before 1855. The front features slate hanging on rubble, while the rest of the building is made of rubble with mostly dry slate roofs that have projecting eaves, exposed rafter ends, and purlins. The farmhouse has two parallel cross wings and a linking roof, with a service wing at the rear right and brick stacks, including a central stack and stacks over the rear gables.

The house has a double-depth plan and stands two storeys high, with a symmetrical entrance front that has three bays and three windows. The windows are late 19th-century horned sashes, with four panes over a single pane in stone surrounds at the projecting cross wing gable ends, which have triangular pediments above the first floor. The entrance bay features a 2/1-pane sash above a round-arched stone doorway, which has stepped caps to square jambs, a key block, and a stepped hood. The original door likely has later colored glazing with margin panes. Other inspected windows include original hornless sashes with glazing bars, such as a two-window left-hand return with wide panes and a 12/16-pane stair window.

The interior of the farmhouse is mostly unaltered, except for the removal of some partitions that were part of a former rear passage. Notable interior features include slate floors, window shutters, a dogleg stair, panelled doors, and two chimneypieces with consoles.

Additionally, there is an attached rubble wall on the left side of the farmhouse, topped with granite copings and wrought-iron railings that have fleurs-de-lys finials. Locally, it is said that the building was formerly known as the 'Lame Lion Inn,' which catered to trade associated with the former canal.
