Description

The wall and privy houses located 40 metres southeast of Pele House date from the 18th century, with the northern privy built around 1880. They are constructed from roughly-squared stone with dressings, and the northern privy features a rock-faced finish. Both privies are square in shape and topped with pyramidal roofs. The southern privy has a chamfered doorway on the south side, a stone-surround window on the east, and two low openings on the north. The taller northern privy includes a boarded door on the west and an opening on the east that is rebated for a door, which leads to a twin-seated closet inside. A linking wall connects the two privies and has flat coping, along with a plain gateway that features a monolithic northern pier towards the south end. The walls to the north and south of the privies are not of interest.
