Description
This is an outbuilding, likely used as a pigsty and store, dating from the early 19th century. It is constructed of local stone rubble, with the left-hand gable end weatherboarded. The roof is made of scantle slate, hipped at the right end and gabled at the left end, featuring early reused crested ridge tiles. The building is small and single-storey, rectangular in shape, with doorways at both ends, one at the centre rear, and another to the left of the front. This suggests it was originally divided into four square sections, although the internal partitions have since been removed. It has plank doors and no windows. The roof structure is old, with principal rafters that have halved and lapped apexes and trenched purlins.
