Low House

Low House is an early 18th-century house that was altered and enlarged in the 19th century and refenestrated in the mid-20th century. The house is constructed of red/brown brick with a Welsh slate roof, and is arranged with a three-cell baffle-entry plan. It is two storeys high and has three bays. A half-glazed door is set in a plain surround between bays two and three, and small square, three-light casement windows are found throughout. A two-course first-floor band projects outwards. Ridge stacks are located above the entrance and at the left gable end. The rear elevation has 19th-century windows. The left return has been rendered, while the right return shows tumbled-in brickwork to the gable, following the original outshut roofline. Attached lean-to outbuildings are not of particular architectural interest. Internally, a large mantle beam is present in the fireplace of the central room. Ceiling beams are boxed in. The bases of the principal rafters are visible in the upper rooms and appear to be 19th-century trusses, and of slight scantling. At the time of resurvey, the building was disused and neglected.
