Winnycroft Farmhouse: Cider House and Attached Byre to West

Winnycroft Farmhouse includes a cider house and an attached byre to the west, dating from the late 18th century. The structure features a weatherboarded timber frame set on a high brick plinth, topped with a corrugated metal roof. It has a rectangular plan consisting of two framed bays and is a single storey with a loft. The north side has two boarded stable doors, while the south side has a single door.

Inside, the building has a twin trenched purlin roof, with external and internal trusses made up of a tie-beam, collar with four vertical struts, a bridging beam, vertical studs, and straight braces. The west bay contains an intermediate truss with a collar supported by twin raking struts below the tie-beam, featuring slightly swept arch braces. The wall and tie beams indicate two tiers of former loft floors, and much of the framing consists of re-used sections. The floor in the west bay is made of engineering brick laid with channels, while the east bay has a late 19th-century loft floor with fixed posts for an intact cider mill and cider press equipment. This building is part of a notable group of late 18th-century structures at Winnycroft Farm.
