Low Brownrigg And Adjoining Barns

Low Brownrigg and the adjoining barns are a farmhouse and barns dated 1695, with an inscription over the entrance that reads: "JOHN SCOTT 1695 GRACE BRINGS SALVATION BY AN INWARD LIGHT WORKS REFORMATION IN A PIOUS MIGHT THEN LISTEN WELL UNTO CHRISTS VOICE WITHIN AND TENDER THAT WHICH KEEPS US OUT OF SIN." The building features painted roughcast walls set on large projecting plinth stones and has a graduated greenslate roof with stone chimney stacks. The barns have cement roughcast walls.

The structure is two storeys high with five bays, plus an additional two bays to the right under a common roof. The barns extend to the left at a right angle, partly sharing the same roof line. There is a plank door in a painted stone architrave beneath the dated and inscribed frieze. The ground floor has casement windows with stone mullions that have been removed, along with flanking fire windows, all under a continuous hoodmould that extends over the entrance to the right. Similar windows are found above, with an oval window over the entrance. A 20th-century ground floor window is located to the right, while sash windows above are set in early 18th-century chamfered surrounds. The rear of the house has 20th-century steel casement windows.

The higher part of the barn features a chamfered-surround entrance under a Tudor arch, with another chamfered-surround entrance to the right. An upper floor casement window has had its stone mullion removed. A right-angled extension has a central plank door in an 18th-century chamfered surround. John Scott was an active member of the Society of Friends, which is reflected in the inscription. Extensions to the barns that project into the farmyard are not of interest.
