Description

The linked farm buildings and gin-gang, attached to the south of Stone Bridge Farmhouse, date from the early to mid-19th century. They are constructed from squared rubble with stone-flagged roofs and form an H-plan layout with additional structures. The former threshing barn is connected to the west return of the farmhouse, while the gin-gang is located to the east, and there is a T-plan range of byres and a north barn to the west.

The two-storey, ten-bay threshing barn features altered openings, including two boarded doors on the east front and a 20th-century vehicle entrance in the gabled south return. The large semi-octagonal gin-gang has rectangular-plan piers, later infill walls with inserted fixed lights, and a semi-pyramidal roof.

The one-storey T-plan range of byres includes a five-bay east range with a central Dutch door, blocked end doors, and an inserted window on the south side. The six-bay west range, which is at right angles, features a round-arched opening in the east front and two replaced Dutch doors, with the roof hipped to the north.

Additionally, there is a two-storey, three-bay north barn that has a brick segmental archway in the gabled north return and an external stone stairway leading to a boarded door on the east wall.
