Description

The building is a cartshed and granary at Bank House Farm, dating from around 1800, with attached cottages from the late 19th century that incorporate parts of the earlier farm building. The cartshed and granary are constructed of roughly-tooled stone, while the later cottages are made of snecked stone. Both sections have Welsh slate roofs and yellow brick stacks.

The north elevation, facing the farmyard, features a three-storey cartshed and granary with nine windows. There is a central external stone stair leading to the first floor, which has folding boarded doors. On either side of the stair, there are pairs of segmental arches on round piers, with a boarded door on the far left and a stable door on the far right. The first floor has part-slatted windows with lower slatted windows above, positioned directly beneath the eaves. All windows have slightly-projecting sills. The roof is steeply pitched with coped gables and end stacks. The rear elevation includes a boarded door, two blocked doors, and an inserted four-pane sash window on the far right, with upper-floor windows matching those on the north side.

To the right are the pair of cottages, each two storeys high and two bays wide, featuring renewed doors and various sash windows, with coped right gables and a ridge stack.

Inside the cartshed, there is an axial arcade of four round piers supporting a spine beam. The cottages are included in the listing for their group value. The attached single-storey farm buildings are not considered of special interest.
