Mid-late C19 yard walls. Red brick with some blue headers in Flemish garden wall bond; earlier range timber-framed with cladding of red brick in English bond; plain tile roofs.

East (yard) elevation: barn of 12 internal bays has 2 cart-entries with double board doors and canopies; blue brick bands at mid-height on right side; corrugated-iron lean-to on left not of special interest; half-hipped roof. At left end attached yard wall is approximately 3 metres high and curves forward to link with stables (q.v.) having a segmental archway. At right end attached yard wall ramps down to square gatepier with capstone. Rear: rubblestone plinth; opposing cart-entries, one retaining canopy; late C19 door at right end; diagonally-set square vents; an inserted oculus. On left is attached barn wing. This has some C18 segmental-arched openings and other late C19 openings; roof is half-hipped at rearmost end, much of the tiling gone; the rearmost gable is of earlier (probably mid C18) red brick with blue headers. Right return (north side): C18 barn masked by late C19 looseboxes, not of special interest, has tripled slit vents on 2 levels and 2 mid-late C19 round-arched iron windows to gable. C17 barn, on right, has 5 wallposts exposed; C18 and C19 brickwork and openings. Interior: C18 barn has some reused jowled wall posts flanking cart-entries; queen-strut roof trusses with high collars; staggered butt purlins. C17 barn has jowled wall posts with straight braces to large scantling tie-beams which support collared queen-strut trusses with clasped through purlins; old rafters; wind braces, some curved, at junction with front range roof structure altered and a truss moved. This range forms an integral part of the Home Farm complex.
