Farm buildings. Late C18. Coursed gritstone and rubble, grey slate and stone slate roofs. The range is composed of 3 buildings: at the S (left) end a 3-storey square pigeoncote with probably a bull-house on ground floor; a 2-bay open cart shelter centre and a 2-storey, 2-bay byre/stable with hayloft over at the N (right) end. Left: wide doorway with tri-stone and bird entrance to top floor, centre; pyramid roof with restored glazed cupola. To rear, a ground-floor doorway reduced to window with wooden ventilator grille; blocked 1st-floor window and 2nd-floor low doorway. Left return: blocked 1st-floor doorway, plain sill and lintel. Cart shed: dressed stone end walls, stone central pier supporting wall plate, later blocking. Byre/granary: built of rubble, the yard front overlaid by later building, a small square window with timber lintel below eaves, left, raised ridge stone for ventilation. Rear inserted doorway, small square window below eaves; right return: external steps to a low doorway with plain sill and lintel. INTERIOR: pigeoncote ground floor has a chamfered cross-beam and untrimmed joists; the upper stages reputed to have a brick lining. Cart shed, 2 king-post trusses, the tie beams of re-used timber. The range is characteristic of the varied building types in an unplanned C18 farmyard.
