Description

Low Ground is a farmhouse or two cottages, now combined as a single dwelling. It likely dates from the early 18th century, with additions from the 19th century and subsequent alterations. The building is constructed of white-painted random rubble with quoins, and has a stone slate roof.

The layout is a single-depth, one-unit plan along a north-south axis, facing east, with a second unit added to the north end. It has two storeys and a 2:1 window arrangement, with a visible vertical joint showing where the two portions were built. The two-window section features a gabled porch, offset to the right. A four-pane sash window is on the left, and two small, two-light chamfered mullion windows are above. A square, corbelled chimney with a cornice sits at the left gable. The added bay to the right incorporates a doorway at the junction between the builds, with a six-pane sash window on the ground floor and a two-light casement window above, with a gable chimney. A privy is attached to the north gable wall.

The interior of the older section includes two lateral beams. The building is an interesting example of a former one-unit, two-storey dwelling. It forms a group with Three Roods nearby.
