Description

The farm buildings north of Hucksbarn Farmhouse form a complex dating to the late 17th century, with additions from the 18th, 19th, and 20th centuries. They are constructed of timber framing, stone rubble, and brick, with plain-tiled roofs, arranged around a three-sided courtyard encompassing east, north, and west ranges.

The stables with a hayloft in the east range are of two bays, in two storeys, with a stone rubble construction. A boarded door sits in the west gable, protected by a weatherboarded truss. The east gable contains framed openings at both first and ground floor levels, with ventilation slots in the gable apex. It has a single trenched purlin roof with a single raking-strut truss and a cobbled floor.

Adjacent to the stables is a cowhouse with a dovecote. The cowhouse is a weatherboarded timber-frame structure set on a stone rubble wall to the east, and has doors and vents in a west-facing stone rubble wall. A dovecote sits on the roof ridge over the centre bay, featuring a pyramid roof with a weather vane on a three-tier structure with a rendered base. The cowhouse has a six-bay single purlin roof with trusses of low pitch. Later underbuilding of cross beams and arcade bracing on brickwork creates a lean-to extension to the west side.

The north range contains a barn, constructed of stone rubble and weatherboard. It has five bays with open bays at each end linking to adjacent cowhouses, and is two storeys high. Central opposing cart entrances are present, with a 20th-century door to the north and weatherboarded infill to the south. The barn features four king-post trusses. A further cowhouse in the north range is built of 20th-century brick on a stone rubble base, with modern steel windows. It has a seven-bay roof with six king-post trusses, and a 20th-century lean-to extension to the rear.

The west range includes a 19th-century shelter shed built on an earlier core, with brick on a stone rubble rear plinth wall, featuring six open bays to the front and a cobbled floor. A granary, now a garage with a storeroom, also stands in the west range. This is a 19th-century structure built on an earlier core, of brick construction, with boarded infill above an open cart entrance in the west gable and a plain boarded door in the east gable.
