Low Ridding and Former Barn Attached to West End

Low Ridding is a farmhouse, now a house, with an attached former barn that has been converted into a separate dwelling. It dates from the early 18th century and has been altered over time. The building is constructed of roughly coursed mixed rubble with quoins and features a graduated slate roof with stone riggings. It has a single-depth, two-unit plan oriented on a north-south axis, with the former barn built as a receding wing at the south end.

The exterior is two storeys high with an attic and has five windows. The ground floor includes a low gabled porch that is offset to the left of centre, featuring a studded board door and a Tudor-arched inner doorway with a chamfered surround and a hoodmould that is interrupted by the porch. There are two windows to the left of the porch and three to the right, with the second window being much enlarged and altered, while the others are of two lights with chamfered flush mullions. On the first floor, there is a small one-light window to the left and four similar two-light mullioned windows. At the attic level, there are two small blocked one-light windows that are symmetrically placed, with slate bands and cornices, the left one being slightly larger. The gable end of the former barn has an inserted two-light mullioned window on each floor.

Inside, there are five chamfered lateral beams spaced at regular intervals of 180 cm, except for the first beam, which is approximately 130 cm from the south gable wall and likely served as a firehood bressumer. The centre beam, located to the right of the entrance, has a rebate for a former panelled partition. The south room contains a built-in 18th-century cupboard, and there is a quarter-turn stone staircase at the rear wall between the third and fourth beams. A muntin-and-rail panelled partition is present on the first floor, north of the staircase, and stone chimney corbels project into the south room.
