Description
The shippon and former stable at Wigland Hall Farm, dating from around 1800, is constructed of English garden wall bond brown brick and features a grey slate roof. The building is two storeys high and has cambered arches above the windows and divided doors on the lower storey, although some of these have been altered with concrete lintels. There are brick vents in a "double-cross" pattern, and pitch-holes in the loft have been carefully converted into round-arched loading doors with boarded doors. A pitching eye is located in the right end gable.
Inside, the structure has been partly altered, but some cross-tieing shippons remain. The loft has been refloored and features arched openings created with oak cambered lintels in the cross-walls, along with oak purlins and fine queen-post trusses. The building is included for its group value.
