Description
Lower Spout Farmhouse is a detached house dating from the 17th century or early 18th century. It is constructed of coursed rubble with quoins and part rendered, topped with a stone slate roof and featuring an ashlar gable stack. The building has two storeys and a gable entry, which includes a Tudor arch and a later 2-light window on the first floor. On the south-east elevation, there is one 3-light and one 4-light double chamfered window on the ground floor, each with only one mullion remaining, along with a small chamfered fire window to the right. The first floor has two 3-light double chamfered windows, although the mullions have been removed, and there is a recent single light window between them.
