Description

These farm buildings, located to the north and west of High Leam Farmhouse, date from the 18th century and early 19th century. They are constructed from random rubble and feature a Welsh slate roof, along with some local slate. The buildings are arranged in an E-shape.

The rear range is two stories high and includes six segmental arches on the ground floor that serve as entrances to animal shelters and cartsheds, with a granary located above. To the right, there is a single-storey byre that has a reset triangular datestone on its end wall, marked with the date 1707. To the left, a longer single-storey range of stables consists of two sections. The older section features masonry with two stable doors that have alternating jambs and slit windows in between. At the end of this range is a later addition, a coachman's room, which includes a door and a sash window. Additionally, a later single-storey shed extends from the center of the rear range, partially obstructing the fourth arch.

Inside, the single-storey byre and stables have a collar-beam roof from the 18th century and wooden internal lintels.
