An unusually large buttress at the side of Lower House, seen at Image Lower House, a former farmhouse, number 4 High Street, is dated 1682. Remodelled and extended in the mid or late 19th century. In a 'H' plan, constructed in coursed rubble stone, roughcast rendered, under a slate roof. Listed, grade II, with details at: https://historicengland.org.uk/listing/the-list/list-entry/1367250 The small town of Clun is astride the River Clun in the Shropshire Hills Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty. It is located some 14 miles northwest of Ludlow and some 5½ miles north of Knighton. There is evidence of settlement in the Neolithic period but the town grew around the site of an Anglo-Saxon church. The Normans built a castle and a new town was laid out, the grid plan of which survives in this tranquil valley.
