Description
The building is a former granary, now serving as a guest house and studio, located approximately 30 meters northwest of the Mansion. It dates back to the 13th century and is constructed from dressed coursed and squared limestone with a stone slate roof. The structure is rectangular and features a low undercroft. The gabled ends have parapets, with the north side showcasing a fine 2-light Early English window beneath a gabled hood that has a trefoil apex recess. There is an off-centre trefoil-headed light below this window. Boldly projecting anti-rat courses are interrupted by low diagonal corner buttresses. Below this, there is a canted recess with an ox's head grain outlet. The south end has two trefoil-headed lights, and there are two openings in the undercroft that combine with a relieving arch. On the east side, there is an off-centre pointed arched doorway with a hoodmould, positioned immediately to the right of a central buttress, and accessed by a flight of stone steps that has a dog kennel recess beneath. An undercroft doorway is located on the west side. The interior has been altered to create a guest house but retains the original granary floor position. This granary is a very early example that highlights the significance of this building type during the medieval period. It has been illustrated in a Country Life article from December 1, 1900, and referenced in various historical records.
