Description
Low Moor is a farmhouse built in the late 18th century, with later alterations and additions. It features painted rendered walls beneath a graduated greenslate roof, which has rendered chimney stacks. The building is two storeys high and has three bays, with a two-storey, single-bay extension on the left and a single-storey, single-bay extension on the right. The central entrance has a panelled door set within a painted stone surround. The windows are two-light flat stone-mullioned types, while the extensions have sash windows in painted stone surrounds. Historical references include a plan titled "a sketch for farmhouse, etc., at Walkers Low Moor" on watermarked paper dated 1797, as noted in the Royal Commission on the Historical Monuments of England for Westmorland and the Transactions of the Cumberland & Westmorland Antiquarian & Archaeological Society.
