Barn With Horse-Engine House And Water Wheel 30 Metres To West Of Carhart Farmhouse

This building is a barn with a horse-engine house and water wheel, located 30 metres to the west of Carhart Farmhouse. It dates from the early 19th century, with the horse-engine house added slightly later and the water wheel installed in 1848. The structure is made of stone rubble and features a slate roof with hipped ends. The barn was originally likely designed in an overall 'L' shape, with shippons on the ground floor and a threshing floor and hay loft on the first floor.

The exterior has two storeys, with brick segmental arches over the openings. The ground floor has asymmetrically placed plank doors flanked by window openings, while the first floor features four window openings and a plank door near the angle of the two ranges. Inside, the horse-engine house retains part of the original timber framing for the machinery, including a central timber post. The water wheel, located on the left side, was made by Oatey of Wadebridge and is dated 1848. This hybrid overshot wheel, which has timber buckets, measures over 20 feet in diameter.
