Brow Top Farmhouse And Adjoining Barns

Brow Top Farmhouse and adjoining barns are located in Sebergham and were formerly known as the King's Arms Inn. The building dates back to 1730, as indicated by the inscription over the entrance, and incorporates part of a 17th-century house at the rear. The exterior features painted roughcast walls with an eaves cornice and flush quoins on a chamfered plinth. The roof is made of graduated greenslate with coped gables and kneelers, and there are roughcast chimney stacks. The barns have roughcast walls and sandstone slate roofs.

The farmhouse is two storeys high and consists of five bays, with lower barns arranged in a U-shape to the left. The entrance has a panelled door with a radial fanlight, set in a bolection surround with a keystone frieze and the dated panel above. To the left of the entrance, there are two-light flat stone-mullioned windows with rounded arches for each light. The ground-floor windows to the right were originally similar but have been replaced by sash windows with glazing bars in their original surrounds. The upper floor features two-light flat stone-mullioned windows with glazing bars, and there is a sash window above the entrance in a bolection surround.

At the rear, there is one original 17th-century window, although the stone mullion has been removed. The end wall on the left shows the original roof line of the earlier house. Inside, there is an inglenook with a heck partition and a carved late 17th-century firebeam, likely from the earlier house, which has an inscription and the date 1730. The barns are partly the same age as the earliest house, and the entrance nearest the house may have served as the cross-passage. A through carriage-arch is located to the left. The interior features one pair of upper crucks, while a right-angled extension is a later addition, now with 20th-century windows and openings.
