Description
NRHE data transfer:
Lower House Farmhouse. 16th to 17th century timber-framed building with gabled cross-wings at the north and south ends, and a 17th to 18th century gabled block added at the north end. (RCHM 45). Grade II. <1>
Lower House Farm, house, nearly 1 1/2 miles south-south-east of the church, has been largely re-faced with modern brick. It was built late in the 16th or early in the 17th century, on a rectangular plan, but a late 17th or early 18th century addition at the north end, made the plan L-shaped. Inside the building, the timber-framing is visible in all the walls, and has shaped wall-posts under the main beams. <2>
