Description

The former house, now a farm building, is located immediately north of Roskestal Farmhouse. It likely dates from the 17th century and was remodeled in the 19th century. The structure is built of granite rubble with granite dressings and features an asbestos slate roof with gable ends. The building has a small L-shaped plan, currently consisting of one room, but it was probably originally two rooms, with evidence of a fireplace in the right-hand room and a pantry outshut behind it.

The exterior is single storey, and there may have originally been small windows under the eaves to light chambers mostly in the roof space. The east-south-east front has three windows and a doorway to the right of the middle. There is a 17th-century chamfered window opening on the left, which may still be in its original position, while the other openings are likely from the 18th or 19th centuries. Inside, the building has a simple limewashed and partly plastered interior.
