Description

The building consists of a stable, granary range, cottage, and an attached archway located east of Moseley Farmhouse. This 17th-century farm range originally served as stables or byres with a granary or hayloft above. It was later converted into a cottage with an added bay, and features an archway that connects to a single-aisled barn. The structure is built from coursed gritstone rubble and has stone slate and grey slate roofs, with quoins at the corners.

The two-storey, three-bay range has chamfered doorways at each end and two inserted or enlarged windows between them: a sash window on the left and a ventilated stable window on the right. The upper storey has three evenly-spaced single-light windows, with chamfered surrounds on the left and center, while the right window has been enlarged. On the right return, there is a fine stone stair leading to a chamfered doorway, with an owl hole above it. To the right of the stone steps, a linking wall has a chamfered doorway that opens onto the path leading down to Moseley Farmhouse. A ridge stack is positioned between the first and second bays, with gable coping on the right and a raised roof on the added bay to the left.

At the rear, there is a four-pane sash window and a small square part-glazed window above it on the right, along with a plate-glass sash in the added bay. The south wall of the added bay features four-pane sashes. Inside, only the left end, which is the cottage, was inspected. A door opens into the foot of boxed-in stairs, with a living room and kitchen to the right that includes a surviving cast-iron range and set pot. The cross-beam has a deep chamfer, and the joists are exposed. This building is a rare survival of a 17th-century farm structure, with the 19th-century addition at the south end believed to have occurred when the chimney of a nearby bleach works was demolished, using the stone for the end bay.
