Description

Lower Farmhouse is a farmhouse with an attached barn, dating from the early 17th century, with a late 17th-century addition and 19th-century alterations. The building is constructed of coursed rubble with stone dressings around the windows and features a gabled stone slate roof, which has three stone stacks and one end stone stack with a brick cap. It has a T-shaped plan, with the main range positioned at right angles to the road and a later wing running parallel to the barn on the left.

The south front consists of four sections: the gable end of the core range on the right, a two-storey, three-window block in the center, a gabled two-storey, one-window range on the left, and the barn further to the left. The main block's windows are 19th-century, two-light small pane casements set in 17th-century openings with hoodmoulds. The gable end on the right features a single light 17th-century window with a hoodmould, while the gabled section on the left has a three-light casement on the ground floor and a three-light chamfered mullion window above, both with hoodmoulds. There is a central gabled porch supported by brick piers, featuring an ovolo-moulded architrave around the doorway, which has a plank door. The east front and rear also have further chamfered mullions.

Inside, there is a large inglenook fireplace in the ground floor room to the right and a dog-legged staircase with turned balusters.
