Part of L-Plan Range at Lower House Farm

Lower House Farm features a 15th-century, two-unit, cruck-framed former house, with two additional bays added at the southeast end during the 17th or 18th century. The northwest end has been refronted and includes a back-kitchen wing from the 19th century. The building is constructed of rubble stone in regular coursed blocks, with a plinth, boxed eaves, a slate roof, a rubble end stack on the left, and a brick stack at the rear right. There are steps leading up to a central door, which is set under a cambered voussoir lintel and features a boarded door in a heavy frame. The windows are regularly arranged, with voussoir lintels and brick sills, although many are boarded up. The first-floor windows are very narrow and positioned under the eaves. The left-hand end bay has a weatherboarded upper floor and large double doors below.

Adjoining the former house is a barn and cowhouse range that runs at right angles. Only a partial inspection of the barn end was possible, but it appears to date from the 17th century, with some replacement trusses and wall-framing from the 18th and 19th centuries. The external elevations are mostly weatherboarded under a slate roof, while the ground floor of the cowhouse is made of rubble stone, featuring boarded doors and loft shutters.

Inside, there is a substantial survival of original cruck trusses and partition walls, which consist of large horizontal timber-frame panels filled with wattle and woven lath. The left-hand room contains a large blocked fireplace with an ovolo moulded lintel, an axial beam with a deep chamfer and step stop, and exposed joists. The central room has a chamfered axial beam, exposed joists, and a large salting slab on brick piers. The right-hand room features a chamfered axial beam with scroll stops and a small brick-lined 19th-century corner fireplace. The floors are flagged, and the later roof has been raised above the cruck trusses.
