Farm buildings enclosing a rectangular yard on 3 sides, of which the east and south ranges are of greater interest than the north. C17, altered in C19; and C18. East range, stables or cow-house, C17 altered in C19. Coursed squared sandstone, stone slate roof. Rectangular plan, approx. 8 bays. Two storeys; west front (to yard) has a chamfered plinth, a continuous dripmould stepped over the doorways; the 5 principal doorways are symmetrically arranged, with one in the centre and a pair to each side, plus one other at the right hand end; all have Tudor-arched lintels and chamfered surrounds; above the first pair is a panel with raised lettering "ES", enclosed by moulding linked to the dripmould, and above the second pair a similar panel with a raised double cross (of St. John of the Hospital); the 1st doorway has been altered as a window, the 2nd and 3rd blocked with brick and the 6th blocked with stone, while the 4th and 5th are furnished with stable doors; the central doorway is flanked by 2-light chamfered mullion windows (that on the right lacking the mullion), and over the lintel of this and the 4th are oculi. 1st floor has C19 chamfered single-light windows. Rear (east side) of less interest, with altered or inserted openings. Interior: altered, but retains most of collar truss roof structure. South range, of similar materials, is a larg barn with attached cart shed, and appears to be C18 (but has roof structure similar to the east range). Rectangular plan of 7 bays, plus 2-bay cart shed at west end. Chamfered plinth; large segmental-arched wagon doorways opposed in the 2nd and 6th bays, all with stepped voussoirs, those in the 2nd (eastern) bay blocked, but the others furnished with harr-hung double doors (iron harr-hinges). Collar truss roof with 2 pairs of butt-purlins (some re-used). Cart-house at west end has coupled segmental-arched entrances to the yard (roof and rear walls partially collapsed). North range, apparently C19, of dressed masonry, with altered openings, is of less interest.
