Description
This farm building, attached to the north-west end of Rumleigh Farmhouse, dates from the early to mid-19th century and may have originally served as a shippon. It features rubble walls and a roof that is partly covered with scantle slate and partly with asbestos slate, topped by a rendered brick chimney shaft at the front. The ground floor currently consists of one large room and one smaller room, although evidence of its original use as a shippon has disappeared. There is likely a granary on the first floor, which is accessible via external stone steps. The building is two storeys tall with an asymmetrical front, featuring stone steps at the center and a wide opening on the ground floor to the right. Above the steps, there is a doorway leading to the first floor, with a window opening to its right.
