Description
The building is a complex of a stable, haybarn, and shippon, dating primarily from the late 18th century, with some elements from the 17th century. It sits 50 metres southeast of Manor Farmhouse. The stable was originally 17th century and enlarged in the late 18th century. The haybarn and shippon are likely late 18th century in origin. The stable incorporates 17th-century sandstone in part of its left gable end, back wall, and a cross-wall, while the rest is constructed of brown brick in an English garden wall bond, topped with a graded grey slate roof. The haybarn has brick pillars, T-shaped in plan, which support king-post trusses. The shippon projects from the haybarn on the right side. The stable features two boarded doors, one situated under a skewback cambered arch. There is an inserted vehicle opening on the left side of the stable, along with two stone-lined pitching eyes to the loft. A damaged fireplace is present in the former groom's room. The shippon has a doorway also under a skewback cambered arch, and an inserted wide opening, as well as two stone-lined pitching eyes in its loft. The complex represents a rare survival of a farmstead situated on the main street of a small town.
