Description
The former farm buildings, located approximately 25 metres to the east of Woolstaston Hall, are a combination of cow houses and a cartshed, now partly used as a studio. They date from the mid to late 17th century, with alterations and additions made in the 18th and late 19th centuries. The structure is timber framed with red brick nogging set on a sandstone rubble plinth, and part of it has been rebuilt in the 18th century using uncoursed red sandstone rubble, along with red brick and grey sandstone dressings. The cartshed is weatherboarded. The roof is covered with plain tiles and the building has two storeys.
The former 17th-century barn consists of three framed bays, with one additional bay from the 18th century and a two-bay cartshed added to the west in the 19th century. The framing features 17th-century square panels that extend from the sole plate to the wall plate. On the north front, there is a large 20th-century gabled semi-dormer located off-centre to the left, which contains a two-light small-paned casement. There are two central 20th-century wooden casements, a half-glazed door to the left, and a two-leaf boarded door to the right, with the cartshed positioned at the far right.
The south front features a gabled loft dormer to the left and a 20th-century roof light to the right, along with scattered small casements from the 19th and 20th centuries, and four boarded doors. The gable end to the east displays an exposed truss with a tie-beam, two collars, queen struts, and v-struts, with four inserted 20th-century casements between the framing. Inside, there are 17th-century collar and tie-beam trusses with queen struts and pairs of purlins. The 17th-century section of the building was likely originally a three-bay barn that was converted into cow houses in the 18th century when a new barn was constructed to the south, which is not included in this listing. These farm buildings occupy a prominent position in the village, just east of Woolstaston Hall.
