Underwood

Underwood is a farmhouse with an attached barn, now used as dwellings. It likely dates from the late 17th century or early 18th century and has been altered and recently renovated. The building is constructed of roughly coursed rubble with quoins, and the front is painted white. It has a stone slate roof and features a single-depth, two-unit plan oriented on an east-west axis, facing south. There is an outshut at the rear of the west bay and a lean-to in the angle, with the former barn extending to the west and a rear wing.

The exterior consists of two low storeys and three windows, with some through-stones visible in the top courses. On the ground floor, there is an added or rebuilt gabled porch offset to the left, accompanied by one square window to the left and two to the right, all featuring recent four-pane glazing. The upper floor has similar windows flanking the porch, along with a segmental-headed one-light window near the right-hand corner. A gable chimney is located to the right, and a ridge chimney is at the junction to the left. The former barn to the left includes a square-headed doorway near the junction, topped by a stone slate band, a very small square window to the right, and a square window above and to the left, along with an inserted arched one-light window to the left of that. The west side has inserted openings. At the rear, the outshut features a two-light mullioned window, and the gable of the wing displays through-stones and a stepped chimney.

The interior has not been inspected.
