Description
Low House Farmhouse is an 18th-century building that was enlarged and refaced in the early to mid-19th century. The gable end walls are constructed of old narrow bricks, while the front and above feature larger local pinkish bricks arranged in a garden wall bond. The roof is pantiled, with stone copings and kneelers, and there are brick end and off-centre chimneys.
Originally, the structure served as a house and cottage, with a granary located on the first floor above the cottage. The farmhouse is two storeys tall and has four bays, with the third bay containing only a door set in a modern porch. The windows are cross casements with wood architraves, positioned under flat gauged brick arches and featuring stone cills. There are two granary openings on the rear elevation, which are part glazed and part louvred. Access to the granary door is via brick and stone steps.
Inside, there is an early 19th-century staircase with a ramped handrail that turns in an earlier stairwell. There is a small stable extension on the right that has been partially rebuilt and features Dutch doors, while the left extension remains unaltered.
