Lower Farmhouse

Lower Farmhouse is a farmhouse dating from 1616, with significant alterations in the mid-18th century. It is constructed of regular coursed limestone and ironstone, with a slate roof. Originally built on a T-shaped plan, the main front has six window bays and features 20th-century casements within original openings, all under wooden and gauged stone lintels with keyblocks. Two large tripartite sash windows are centrally and to the right of the ground floor, also with gauged stone lintels and keyblocks. A single bay to the left has lower eaves and may have originally been part of a barn. The main house features ashlar gable parapets and kneelers, with brick and stone stacks at the ridge and end. A datestone is present on the left gable. The rear elevation is similar, with two 20th-century entrances and a projecting wing to the right of centre. The interior retains two open fireplaces with bressumers.
