Linked Farmbuildings, 20 Metres North of Pecknell Farmhouse

Linked farmbuildings dating to the late 18th century, with additions from the early to mid-19th century and the early 20th century. They stand 20 metres north of Pecknell Farmhouse and are included for group value. The core of the complex is a U-plan barn, with haybarns attached to the outer returns and a cart shed attached to the centre of the rear elevation. A range of loose-boxes, a pigsty, and a walled yard are attached to the south return of the eastern haybarn.

The main barn is a two-storey, nine-bay structure with symmetrical frontages facing the yard. It has flush quoins and two segmental-arched openings, along with breathers. Alterations in the mid-19th century include a nine-pane fixed light to the left of the centre. The inner returns have first-floor boarded openings and hit-and-miss ventilators. The barn has a low-pitched hipped roof. The tall, three-bay haybarns have rectangular piers; the central outer pier of the western haybarn features clay pipes arranged to display the date 1866, and a low-pitched roof with a central louvred ventilator.

The cart shed, with a granary above, is a three-bay structure with segmental-arched openings and a boarded door above. A 1905 datestone is set into the northern spandrel, and the roof is hipped. The single-storey, four-bay north range of loose-boxes has two blocked, segmental-arched openings with boarded doors. The lower, two-bay south range features an elliptical archway and a blind quatrefoil in the south gable.

The pigsty has a low-pitched pent roof with a feeding chute leading into the walled yard. A late 20th-century barn attached to the east front of the cart shed, as well as altered shelter sheds attached at right-angles to the south returns of the main barn, and an L-plan single-storey range attached to the south return of the western haybarn, have replaced corrugated-iron roofs and are not considered to be of special interest. The walls are sandstone, with coursed rubble for the main barn and loose-boxes, rubble with dressed quoins for the haybarns, and dressed stone for the cart shed. Roofs are generally stone-flagged or Welsh slate, with corrugated-iron roofing on part of the loose-box range.
