Description
Lawn Farm is a 1½-storey house constructed from whitened rubble stone with a slate roof and a replacement brick ridge stack. The entrance is located to the left of centre and features a 19th-century six-panel door beneath a hood mould. The windows throughout the house are fitted with wooden mullions and transoms, all adorned with hood moulds. To the right of the doorway, there is a four-light hall window with sunk-chamfered mullions, and further to the right, a three-light window with ovolo moulding. The parlour on the left side includes a four-light window with ovolo moulding, and a similar window is situated in a gabled bay above the parlour. Above the hall, there is a timber-framed gabled bay featuring a four-light sunk-chamfered window, quadrant timber work, and a jettied gable supported by consoles with low-relief heads. The right gable end has a four-light mullioned window on the lower storey, a three-light window above it that has been replaced in an earlier hooded opening, and a modern window inserted to its left. The left end wall is rendered. At the rear, there is a two-light stair window with wooden ovolo mullions, along with an inserted two-light casement in the right-hand gable. A lean-to has been added on the left side.
The house maintains its original lobby entry plan, which includes back-to-back fireplaces. The hall on the right features a fireplace with an ovolo-moulded lintel and a brick oven, along with two spine beams that have fillet stops. A post and panel screen separates the hall from the outer room; this screen is concealed from the hall side but exposed on the outer side, where it is painted white. The outer room has a 19th-century diaper tile floor and a salting slab. The parlour on the left side has a replaced fireplace lintel. Stairs to the left of the parlour have timber treads over earlier stone treads, and the window includes a wooden seat. The upper chamber above the hall showcases exposed quadrant timber work.
