Description

This cowhouse, located on the south-east side of the farmyard at Middle Hampt, dates from the mid-19th century and has undergone some minor alterations. It is constructed from roughly coursed slate-stone rubble with granite quoins and features a hipped slate roof. The building has two levels. On the ground floor, there is a roughly central plank door flanked by windows on both sides, all of which have granite lintels. Above the ground-floor doorway, there is a plank door on the first floor, along with pigeon nesting holes and ledges on either side. Inside, the ground floor contains 19th-century cowstalls, and the roof is supported by a collar truss design with seven bays. The cowhouse is included for its group value.
