Description
Low House is a house dated 1769, constructed from coursed squared gritstone with a graduated stone slate roof. It has two storeys, an attic, and cellars beneath the south end, featuring a direct-entry plan that is one room deep. The building has a plinth and quoins. The main facade, which faces southeast and is away from the road, includes a central 20th-century panelled door set in a projecting keyed surround. On each floor, flanking the door, are three-light flat-faced mullion windows with recessed mullions, each having one mullion removed, and projecting sill bands. A stone plaque with the inscription 'B' is set in a stone surround at the centre of the first floor. The house features shaped stone gutter brackets marked 'J M 1769', a shaped kneeler, gable coping, and end stacks. The right return has an attic storey lit by a Venetian window. Inside, there is a stone newel stair built into the centre of the rear wall, and the cellar contains a covered well beneath the stone stairs. The roof structure consists of three raised cruck trusses with through purlins and a collar supporting a king post and ridge purlin.
