Description
This is a barn and farm buildings dating from the 18th century, with alterations and extensions made in the mid to late 19th century, and further changes in the 20th century. The structure is built from coursed, squared stone of varying qualities and features a stone slate roof. The barn has three bays, with a lean-to and porch on one side, and short extensions at each end.
The facade facing the house includes a porch at the left end of the barn, which has a wide opening with walls extended as buttresses on either side and a flat concrete lintel above. There is a 2-light mullioned window above the porch, and the gable features a parapet with a cross-gablet apex. To the right, there is a three-bay lean-to supported by two stone piers, with openings infilled with metal windows below the eaves and one boarded door. The right end has a parapet gable, and the roof rises almost to the eaves of the barn, which also has parapet gables and cross-gablet apices.
A single bay has been added to the left end, which is lower and hidden by later buildings that are not of special interest. To the right, there is a lower wing set back, which includes lean-to dog kennels with two boarded doors in front and a single light window above, along with a parapet gable.
Inside, there is a door from the porch to the lean-to, and wide openings have been cut in the gables of the barn below the loft level, with a cambered stone arch to the opening on the left. The rear door to the threshing floor is low and features a timber lintel. The walls in the bays on the right are lined with glazed tiles up to about 1.25 meters high, and there is a slit air vent in the right gable. The barn has queen strut trusses with three pairs of purlins and no ridge member, while the right extension has an iron truss. The barn includes a threshing floor at one end and possibly a granary over the porch, with later extensions at each end and a lean-to shed for yard cattle that has since been converted for other uses. This barn forms a group with the adjacent house.
