Description
The outbuilding to the northeast of the Firs Farmhouse is a farm structure dating from the late 18th century. It is built from regularly coursed gritstone and features plain tiled roofs. The building has an 'L' shaped layout, comprising seven bays in the northeast section and three bays in the southeast section, both of which are two storeys high.
The long range includes two triangular vents in the roof, seven openings on the first floor—one with glazing bars, one with louvres, two with boarded shutters, and the rest as 2-light openings. There are five ground floor doorways, each with massive lintels and boarded doors. At the northwest end, there is a steeply pitched monopitch lean-to. The cross range features a full height central archway with a depressed segmental arch that lacks a keyblock, along with plain doorways in each flanking bay, one of which has a four-paned overlight. The building has a plain planked door. It is listed for its group value only.
