Description

The former dairy house, located immediately north-west of Dunshay Manor House, is likely from the 18th century. It was converted into a studio in the mid-20th century and is connected to the Manor House by a stone wall. The building features rubble stone walls and a half-hipped stone slate roof. Originally, it had one storey and a loft, but the loft floor has been removed. In the mid-20th century, dormers were added to the long walls. On the south wall, there are external stone steps that lead to the former loft. This building is included for its group value with the Manor House.
