Description
A range of L-shaped farm buildings, dating to the late 17th and early 18th centuries, with later 18th and early 19th century extensions, situated approximately 20 metres south of Tregada House. The south barn is primarily constructed of coursed slate-stone rubble with cob to the first floor and eaves, featuring a corrugated-iron roof to the left and slate to the right, the latter being hipped at the right end. The east barn is roughly coursed slate-stone with granite quoins and dressings, topped with a slate roof that is hipped to the left. Originally a free-standing late 18th-century barn/coalhouse on the east side was extended north and south, with a hexagonal horse-engine house added to the south end, and is now linked to the south range. The south barn has a plank door to the right and another on the first floor to the immediate left. A prominent lean-to with wide double doors is located to the left. The rear elevation features a semi-circular staircase projection, formerly capped with slate. External lateral steps lead to the horse-engine house at the south end of the east range, which incorporates a coalhouse below. The east barn has three segmental-headed archways with voussoirs and projecting keystones to the ground floor, each with plank doors. A plank door is located at first-floor level to the centre, with a matching entrance to the rear, and a small window directly below the eaves to the right. Straight joints are visible to the left and right; the left section (formerly a granary) has a plank door immediately to the left of the joint, and an infilled doorway above to the left. The horse-engine house attached to the south end of the east range is partly open and hexagonal. Internally, the south barn contains part of a cider press to the left of the cross wall, where the corrugated iron meets the slate roof, along with a stone spiral staircase to the rear projection and remains of granite to the front-right corner. A continuous loft is present to the right of the cross wall and another to the left section. The 19th-century collar truss roof is similar throughout both ranges. The buildings are included for their group value.
