Description

The stables, piggery, hen-house, and cartshed are located at the south end of a barn dated 1783, situated 200 metres south-west of Farfield Hall. These structures are likely associated with the barn. They are built from hammer-dressed stone and feature a stone slate roof. The stables and cartshed are arranged in an L-shape, with the piggery and hen-house positioned at the junction of the two ranges at the rear.

This is a single-storey building. The stables have two sets of paired doorways that share a common lintel and a central monolithic jamb. There are also two square windows with plain stone surrounds. The cartshed, which is at right angles to the stables, has three wide entries with monolithic jambs and lintels that include rebates for doors.

Attached to the west end is a three-bay building that features a doorway with tie-stone jambs, quoined angles, and a coped gable, which includes a circular window adorned with four keystones. The piggery is located behind and has a small yard in front of each low building, complete with a small doorway. The hen-house, which is accessed from the rear of the stables, has nesting boxes built into the wall. Together with the barn dated 1783, these structures form three sides of an enclosed courtyard.
