Barn, Stable And Crew Yards At Moat Farm

The barn, stable, and crew yards at Moat Farm date from the late 18th century and early 19th century, with alterations and extensions made in the late 19th century. The structure is built from coursed squared limestone rubble with ashlar quoins and has pantiled roofs. It has a double square plan.

On the left side, there is a two-storey stable block with a granary above, along with a range of beasthouses and an open-sided hovel leading to the crew yard. The stable features a two-storey, irregular three-bay front with two planked doors on the ground floor, both having timber lintels, along with two rectangular breathers, a planked door, a pivoting light, and a blocked opening at the eaves. The stable has a clasped purlin softwood roof.

The beasthouse range includes four planked doors beneath timber lintels, and the hovel is supported by timber bay posts. To the right, there is a single bay extension with a pent roof made of brick, which has one blocked opening. Between the two yards, there is another range of open-sided hovels with timber posts. Attached to this is a late 18th-century barn that is two storeys high and has two bays, featuring large planked doors beneath a segmental brick archway on the left and an opening to the right at first floor level leading to the eaves. There are also two blocked diamond-shaped breathers. This listing is included for its group value only.
