Description

Sherrowbooth is a farmhouse dated 1770, featuring an early 19th-century porch and modernized in 1981. It is constructed from coursed, squared buff sandstone rubble with sandstone dressings and has a graded Kerridge stone-slate roof, which includes two stone gable chimneys. The building is double-pile and has a two-storey, symmetrical three-bay front. The end-bay windows, originally designed with three-light tall, square-section mullions, have been replaced with 20th-century wooden casements. The rectangular doorcase features moulded square pilasters and springers, topped with a shaped lintel and a projecting false keystone, surrounding a 20th-century glass door. In front, there is an open wooden porch supported by plain wooden columns. Above the door, a date tablet reads HSA 1770, accompanied by a two-light casement window on the first floor. At the rear, there is a single-storey central projection with a fixed Venetian window that has glazing bars in a plain stone surround. The interior contains no notable features.
