Description

This building is a cart shed with a loose box and pigsty, located 5 metres north of High Beaumont Hill Farmhouse. It dates from the late 18th century to early 19th century and is constructed from squared limestone with brick dressings, topped with corrugated asbestos roofs. The structure is two-storey and has four bays, featuring three elliptical brick arches supported by rebated stone piers.

An external stone stairway on the right includes a kennel with a round-arched entrance and leads to a boarded door. The openings have brick jambs and elliptical-arched heads, with replaced two-light windows above the arches and on the right side. The roof is hipped, and there is a two-bay extension on the left. This extension has a similar stairway with a kennel and a first-floor boarded door, along with a replaced Dutch door and a square window opening above it on the left.

The monopitch roof slopes down to the rear, where the two-bay right return incorporates a loose box with a boarded door and a two-light window, as well as two hit-and-miss windows above. The rear of the pigsty is patched with brick and features a walled yard and three stepped ledges leading to a hen hole. There is a single-storey range at the rear of the cart shed, which is not of special interest. This building is included for its group value with the former stable.
