Cow houses and cartshed, now partly studio. Mid- to late Cl7 with C18 and late C19 alterations and additions. Timber framed with red brick nogging on sandstone rubble plinth, partly rebuilt in C18 uncoursed red sandstone rubble with red brick and grey sandstone dressings; weatherboarded timber framed cartshed. Plain tile roof. 2 storeys. Probable former C17 barn of 3 framed bays with one C18 bay and C19 two-bay cartshed to west. Framing: C17 square panels, 3 from sole plate to wall plate. North front: large C20 gabled semi-dormer off-centre to left with 2-light small-paned casement. Two central 2-light C20 wooden casements, half- glazed door to left and 2 leaf boarded door to right; cartshed to far right. South front: gabled loft dormer to left and C20 roof light to right; scattered small C19 and C20 casements, and 4 boarded doors. Gable end to east has exposed truss wih tie-beam, 2 collars, queen struts and v-struts; 4 inserted C20 casements between framing.

The C17 part of the building was probably formerly a 3-bay barn, converted to cow houses in the C18 when a new barn was built to the south (not included on this list). The farmbuildings occupy a prominent position in the village, just to the east of Woolstaston Hall (q.v.).
