Lonsdale Farmhouse

Lonsdale Farmhouse is a farmhouse built in the late 18th century, around 1780, for Charles Turner. It features an early 19th-century addition and has undergone later alterations. The building is constructed from coursed squared stone with herringbone tooling and has pantile roofs with stone coping and ridges. It is two storeys high with an attic and consists of two bays, plus an added one-storey bay set back on the right side.

On the south elevation, the main range has a blocked central doorway and three-light small-pane windows with central side-sliding lights. These windows are set in openings with projecting sills and raised keystones above the lintels. There is an eaves band, shaped kneelers, and end stacks, with the right stack being rebuilt in brick. The single-storey bay on the right features a board door on the left and a 12-pane side-sliding sash window on the right, both with tooled lintels. It also has an eaves band, a block kneeler, and a brick stack at the right end. Additionally, there is a lean-to former privy with a board door at the left end, and an added brick outbuilding on the right that is not of special interest.

At the rear, the main range has two 12-pane side-sliding sash windows on each floor, both with keyed lintels and projecting sills, along with a four-pane stair window that has a lintel inscribed "C Turner Built 17..". The single-storey bay at the rear has a 12-pane side-sliding sash window and a door. The left return features a 20th-century six-pane attic window with a keyed lintel.

Charles Turner, the original owner, was known as an agricultural improver and was responsible for building or rebuilding several farmhouses on the Kildale Estate.
