Description
Lowfields Farmhouse is a farmhouse dated 1700, with 19th and 20th-century alterations. It is constructed of slobbered rubble with stone dressings and a stone slate roof. The building has two storeys and was originally three bays, with a 19th-century extension on the left and a barn on the right. The entrance, which was formerly in the center, features a moulded surround and a heavily wreathed decorated lintel that displays the date. To the left and right of the entrance are 20th-century ground floor windows with casements, and there is a continuous dripmould that rises above the lintel. Quoins to the left of the dripmould indicate the former left-hand gable, which is now part of the 19th-century extension that has replaced the original entrance with a 20th-century window. The upper floor has four windows, three in the original house and one in the extension, all of which are 20th-century with casements. There are ridge stacks on both the left and right sides of the roof.
