Description
Morphews Oast is a pair of square oasts and a granary built in the mid-19th century. The oasts are constructed of rubble stone and feature tall square slate roofs, complete with cowls and wind-vanes. Adjacent to the oasts is a large two-storey granary made of red brick, topped with a plain tiled roof that has three ridges. The building includes various openings on the ground and first floors. At the time of the last survey, it was in the process of being converted into residential accommodation.
