Description
The farm buildings located to the north-west of Wood House Farmhouse consist of a barn with an engine-house, a granary range, and a cartshed. They were built in the second quarter of the 19th century, incorporating some fabric from the 18th century. The structures are made of squared rubble with tooled-and-margined quoins and dressings, while the engine-house stack is constructed of brick in English Garden Wall Bond 1 & 3. The roofs are covered with Welsh slate.
The barn, which has the engine-house on its west side, is taller and features a two-bay design. It has chamfered windows at both the ground and first floor levels. The adjoining granary range, which is lower and has four bays, displays three boarded doors, two chamfered segmental arches near the left end, and three blocked granary windows with chamfered surrounds and slightly projecting sills. The far left end of the building serves as the cartshed, and the left return showcases a five-bay arcade of chamfered segmental arches. The gables are coped.
On the rear (west) elevation, the barn features a stable door with boarded double pitching doors above, both set in chamfered surrounds. To the left is the projecting engine-house, which also has a stable door in a similar surround and a hip-ended roof above the pent front part. There is a right return chimney with a chamfered band above a tooled-and-margined stone base, leading to a tapering stack with a moulded ashlar cornice. The right part of the granary range has boarded double doors with a timber lintel, an external stone stair leading to another boarded door, and three granary windows. The lower parts of the wall reveal 18th-century stonework and blocked openings.
An attached altered range to the east of the barn and covered yards are not considered to be of special interest.
