Description

A workshop and barn range, dating probably from the mid-18th century, incorporates earlier features from the late 16th and early 17th centuries and has undergone 19th-century alterations, including conversion of part into four cottages. It is constructed of coursed squared stone with a stone slate roof. The building has an unbalanced T-shaped plan, with the workshops forming the cross-piece and the barn and cottages forming the stem.

The south front of the workshop range has a barn range projecting from the second bay. To the right of this are six bays with reused hollow-moulded, double-chamfered mullion windows, featuring arched lights and sunk spandrels. The windows include an eight-light window to each floor, a paired four-panel door with an oriel window to the right, a six-light window on each floor with a door to the right, and a wide 19th-century shouldered archway with a carved head keystone, flanked by tall windows under two-light windows. Above the archway is a round, plate-traceried window dated 1630, flanked by single arched lights. Further windows are a four-light transomed window with a four-light window above, paired doorways with a transomed two-light window to the right, a two-light window to the left, and a window with a plain stone surround. Three ridge stacks remain, retaining their cornices.

The east front of the barn range features a quoined, segment-arched cart-entry, with a two-light window on each floor to the right and flat-faced mullion windows to the left. The rear of the workshop range exhibits a tall, opposing segmental archway. To its left are slit vents (formerly for a stable). To its right are flat-faced mullion windows with sixteen lights on the ground floor (some blocked), an oval window, two of four-lights (both blocked), two of six-lights, and on the first floor three of four-lights. The rear of the barn range has a projecting gable of the workshop range to the left, with two doorways flanking a blocked window, a further window to the right, and a six-light flat-faced mullion window in the gable. To the right of this wing, alterations include an opposing cart-entry and plain stone surrounds to various doors and windows; the windows on the first floor and some of those on the ground floor are mullioned. Stacks are situated along the front of the ridge.
