Description
These outbuildings, located about 12 meters north of the Dower House, were likely originally a shelter shed for livestock with a fodder loft above. They date from around the mid-19th century. The structure is built from stone rubble and features a slate roof that is gabled at both ends. The front has five stable doors, with the two left-hand units converted into privies, one of which has a double seat. Inside, there is evidence of flooring that predates the conversion to stables.
