Barn, Shelter Sheds And Stables Around Yard Immediately North Of Macaroni Farmhouse

This is a large barn with shelter sheds and stables located around a yard immediately north of Macaroni Farmhouse, dating from around 1800. The structure is built from random rubble limestone and features stone slate roofs. The barn itself is a 9-bay building that runs from east to west and includes three porches and outshuts on the south side, along with two ranges of cart and shelter sheds surrounding the yard. The stables are attached at the southeast corner and face west.

The barn has three parapet gabled porches, each with plank doors and timber lintels, and a hipped hood above each doorway. The outshuts between the porches have catslide roofs, with the west end being open-fronted and supported by a central circular stone column. There are also two lean-to porches on the north side. Part of the barn at the west end has been removed, which has been replaced by a 20th-century shelter that is not of special interest. The barn features triangular vents and a parapet gabled east end.

The shelter sheds have some circular stone columns that have been replaced. The stables, which are attached to the east shelter shed range, have two doorways with stone lintels and plank doors. There are single and two-light recessed chamfered mullioned openings on the ground floor. A 20th-century timber staircase leads to a gabled loft doorway with a plank door. Inside, the barn has a collar and tie-beam roof and is subdivided between the two eastern porches, with timber threshing floors present.
