Description

The building consists of stables and a trap-house with a granary, along with an adjoining lamp-house that includes an earth closet, located immediately east of Lefra Farmhouse. It dates from the late 19th century and is constructed from granite rubble with granite dressings. The granary features a dry Delabole slate half-hipped roof, while the other sections have scantle slate roofs.

The layout includes a small rectangular stable area with a fuel store or trap-house on the left and a granary loft above it. To the right is a lean-to cartshed, and a single-storey lamp-house is set back on the left, which likely contains a former earth closet at its far left. The lamp-house faces west into a cobbled courtyard that is enclosed by high walls on either side, linking it to Lefra Farmhouse.

The exterior features a two-storey stable building, while the other sections are single-storey. The elevations remain unaltered. The stable front has a wide carriage doorway on the left with original ledged doors that have glazed top panels, and a relieving arch above. On the right is an arched stable doorway with an original two-light casement window to its left. At the middle of the first floor, there is a hipped dormered loading hatch with original boarded shutters. The interior has remained virtually unchanged since the 19th century, retaining the original stall partition in the stables.
