Building at Approx. 5m West of Carminowe Farmhouse

This building, located approximately 5 meters west of Carminowe Farmhouse, is a Grade II listed loosebox or stable for a household trap animal, dating from around 1860. It is constructed of shale rubble with dressed granite quoins, jambstones, and lintels, topped with a slurried scantle slate hipped roof. The building has a single cell rectangular plan with a central entrance in the north wall and is a single storey high. The symmetrical north front features two windows with a central doorway and flanking window openings, all with original ledged doors and shuttered windows. Notably, there is a reused medieval trefoil-headed light with linking tracery, serving as a ventilator slit under the eaves of the west wall. The interior has not been inspected. Carminowe was an important manor from the 13th century, and this building is part of a planned group, being one of two similar structures flanking the gateway into the rear courtyard of the farmhouse, with the other building serving for a domestic horse or pony-drawn trap, thus complementary in function.
