Description

The farm buildings located 30 metres southeast of Forest Farmhouse date from the 17th and 18th centuries and form an 'L' shaped group. At the north end is a granary with black weatherboarding, featuring an old pargetted south wall set on a high plinth and a pegtile roof. Originally, the roof had a near-pyramidal shape but now extends over the adjoining cart lodge. The roof structure includes two closely spaced pairs of principal rafters, each supported by long arch bracing to the collars. The early 19th-century cart lodge is also black weatherboarded, with front posts that have shaped knees, and its roof is constructed using the typical King post truss design. The stable, located in the southern range, is built of English bond red brick and has a pantile roof, with a door and window on the north side. The barn features a half-hipped pegtile roof, black weatherboarding, a high brick plinth, and doors for both the ground floor and the hay loft above. The east wall of the barn retains old herringbone pargetting.
