Range of farmbuildings and wall enclosing farmyard at White Cross Grange

This is a range of farm buildings with an attached wall enclosing the farmyard at White Cross Grange, built around 1860. The buildings are made of coursed, dressed magnesian limestone and feature stone-slate eaves courses on pantile roofs, which have been partly replaced with Welsh slate and sheet asbestos. The structures are arranged around three sides of the farmyard, adjacent to the rear of White Cross Grange Farmhouse.

In the center of the rear range is a two-storey, five-bay barn, while the left side of the yard features a two-storey, three-bay cowhouse with a loft. The two-storey sections are connected by one-storey buildings, and the front of the farmyard is enclosed by a contemporary wall with gate piers, which extends next to the house and includes pig troughs.

The barn has a central wagon entrance with boarded doors and a segmental arch beneath a loading hatch, with slit vents on each side and an inserted door on the right. The gable ends have copings. The range to the right of the barn includes a door flanked by slatted casements, while the return range features a through-passage, additional doors, slatted casements, and two open-fronted pigsties with internal covered yards. There is also a dairy at the junction with the house. The range to the left of the barn is blind, consisting of a four-bay cartshed open to the rear. The left return range has an open-fronted shelter shed with a loose box on the left.

The central two-storey section has a door flanked by slatted casements beneath segmental arches, with another door on the right that has a rounded arch with a keystone leading to an internal stair. The first floor has three slatted casements, and there is an eaves band with gable copings. The one-storey range on the left includes a two-bay open-fronted shelter shed flanked by loose boxes, each with a door and window, and gable copings at the end of the range. The front wall features chamfered copings leading to square gate piers with pyramidal caps, and the return section of the wall near the dairy has brick-arched pig troughs.

This is a well-preserved planned farm group.
