Description

This building, located west of Castle Farmhouse, is a late 18th-century folly that was later used as a farm building. It is constructed from coursed squared sandstone in a Gothic style and stands two storeys high with one bay. The main south elevation features slit openings with flat stone lintels and sills, along with battlements. There is a timber lintel above the entrance on the left side. A later brick extension at the rear is not considered of interest.
