'Down' can be a noun, as in first plummage of a bird, or tract of open ground.

It can be an adverb, as when used to explain moving from a higher to a lower position ( John walked down the stairs, for example))

It can also be a preposition, which is something you put before a noun, to connect it to another part of a sentance.

As a pronoun it usually comes after the noun it is replacing. As in for example, George smiled down at him, and as hedid his hair fell in front of his face
