Description

Lower Rewe is a house, formerly a farmhouse, dating from the early to mid 19th century and incorporating parts of an earlier building. It features a mix of plastered cob rubble and brick, with an exposed brick gable end on the southeast side, brick stacks, and a slate roof. The house has a three-room plan that is two rooms deep. The main door is located in the brick end, to the right of the front. A kitchen stack projects from the left gable end, while a lateral stack is positioned to the right of the four-window front. There are four timber sash windows with six panes per sash on the first floor, and one sash below to the right, along with three-light timber casements under segmental heads flanking the door to the left of center. The plain, gabled porch adds to the entrance. The brick end has a central door with flanking sash windows below a round-headed sash. Inside, the house contains 19th-century fittings, but the irregularity of the layout suggests earlier origins.
