Description

The oasthouses and drying shed located to the south-west of Outridge are 19th-century rectangular buildings constructed of random rubble with freestone quoins. The tiled roof is divided into three pyramidal oast hoods, each topped with octagonal wooden cowls. At the west end, there is an open basement floor beneath a wide arch. A similar arch leads to the barrel-roofed basement of the early 19th-century drying shed that adjoins to the north. The drying shed features a low-pitched hipped slated roof, a weatherboarded first floor, and a rubble ground floor. There is a curved wall extension that wraps around to the lane. On the north side, the ground floor includes an open cart shed supported by wooden posts. The oasthouses and drying shed, along with the barn at Outridge, form a cohesive group.
