Description

The main range of farm buildings at White Cross Farm dates from the 17th century, with cladding and the rest of the buildings likely added in 1757. The structure is built of coursed rubble with quoins and features a stone slate roof. The main barn has a square-headed cart entry with a datestone reading 'WW 1757'. To the left is an outshut, while there are later doorways to the right. A part of a further range of buildings, now demolished, is set back at a right angle to the right. An addition with pig sties at the rear and a stone outside stair on the left gable wall is lower and set back to the left. At the rear, there is another square-headed cart entry opposite the one at the front.

Inside the main barn, there are four bays supported by four trusses on posts, with one post set in the wall. The jowelled posts rest on stone footings and are positioned well within the stone walls, allowing for an aisle on each side. There are sockets in the posts that may have been used for aisle ties. The posts are braced to arcade plates and tie-beams, while the upper parts of the trusses appear to be from the 19th century.
