The farmyard complex consists of cowhouses, stables, a barn, and a horse engine house, dating from the mid-19th century. It features chisel-dressed ashlar stone and plain tile roofs with shaped tile bands and coped verges. The main stable range and barn are aligned northeast-southwest and face southeast, with two attached cowhouses to the southeast aligned northwest-southeast, enclosing three sides of a courtyard. The main northwest range is two storeys high and includes a central full-height, segmental-headed carriage arch topped with a square cupola featuring a pyramidal roof and wooden finial. To the left of the arch, there is a ground floor door with two ventilation loops to the right and a row of four ventilation loops to the left. The right side has a ground floor stable-type door slightly off-centre, flanked by two small casements, and a flight of stone steps leading to a boarded loft door, with a loft casement to the right of centre. At the rear of the main range, northwest of the central arch, is a five-sided horse engine shed with a pair of doors on the northwest face and horizontal sliding glazing bar sashes. The northeast range is a single storey with five boarded doors, a top-opening glazing bar window to the left, and a kennel arch to the right. The southwest range is also a single storey and features a double-leaved board door to the left, stable doors to the left of centre and centre, two blocked doorways to the right of centre, and a sliding door to the right. The central door is flanked by two square openings, with the left one boarded and the right one blocked. The southeast range is a single storey with boarded openings to the left and centre, topped with a hipped roof. Calwich Home Farmhouse is not included in this listing.
