There is a later window with a stone lintel and cill to the left, with a stone trough projecting beneath it, and a re-used double-chamfered window to the right, which was formerly a two-light window. The barn has three round-arched vents, shaped brackets, and shaped kneelers with ashlar coping overall.
At the rear, No 74 has double-chamfered mullion windows of two lights on the ground floor, with the mullion removed, and six lights above.
