Barn, Hoprooms and Cowhouse About 50 Yards North of Derndale

This building is a barn, hoprooms, and cowshelter located about 50 yards north of Derndale. It likely dates from the 18th to early 19th century and is constructed of sandstone rubble and brick, featuring weatherboarded timber-framing. The roofs are covered with Welsh slate and tiles. The structure has a rectangular plan oriented north-west to south-east, with a six-bay timber-framed barn on the north-west side and a six-bay brick hoprooms attached at the south-east end. The cowshelter is connected to the north-east side of the barn at a right angle and has two levels.

On the south-west elevation, the barn is on the left and has three openings to the upper weatherboarded floor, which includes three rows of framed square panels and a stable door on the left. The hoprooms on the right feature a slate roof and a dentilled brick eaves cornice, with three first-floor openings that have square mullions. There is a first-floor stable door with a cast iron hoist to the left of center. The ground floor contains segmentally headed openings and two entries with ledged doors.

The cowshelter on the north side consists of about seven bays of heavy raking-strut trusses supported by large braced posts, with an open north-west side and a brick rear wall to the south-east. The east elevation of this wall also has a dentilled brick eaves cornice. Inside the barn, there are unsquared rafters, with some trusses featuring raking struts and others with queen struts to collars. The hoprooms include pegged king-posts with raking struts to the principals and a hop-pocket hole in the upper floor.
