Complex Of Farm Buildings West Of Peckers Farmhouse

The complex of farm buildings west of Peckers Farmhouse is a late 19th-century integrated range constructed from yellow stock bricks, accented with bands of red bricks and red moulded wall tiles, topped with slate roofs. This design represents a mid-Victorian "industrial" interpretation of the traditional U-pattern farmstead that became popular in the late 18th century. The complex includes stables, two barns, a shelter shed, a dairy, and ancillary buildings arranged around a square yard that opens towards the farmhouse to the southeast. Additionally, there is a separate block of pigsties and a wagon shed forming an L-plan to the southwest, with a foldyard enclosed by brick walls between the two blocks.

The northeast elevation features the rear wall of one block divided into five bays by brick pilasters, with a decorative band of red bricks and red moulded tiles with a foliate design below the eaves. The gable end of one barn is adorned with two brick pilasters, and the pediment is outlined by a band of red moulded tiles with an egg-and-dart design, featuring a central recessed square panel decorated with red moulded tiles of foliate design. Both barns retain all original doors and winnowing boards. The shelter shed on the southwest side of the main block still has a scalloped wooden canopy, though it has been blocked in below. The interiors of the buildings are notably intact, preserving original feed chutes and other features. The entire complex was built between 1874 and 1895, with the main block likely constructed early in this period and the pigsty block added later, by the Maryon-Wilson family, who were landlords serving a tenant farm that comprised 231 acres in 1847, according to the tithe award.
