Farm Building In Centre Of Farmyard At South Harton, At South West End

This farm building, likely designed for cattle, dates from the 19th century. It is constructed from granite rubble and features a hipped roof made of corrugated iron. The building is single-storey with doorways located in the centre of each gable wall; the northeast doorway has a two-light wood-mullioned window above it. Each side wall contains four slit windows, along with occasional drainage slits at the base. Inside, there is a central passage running from one door to the other, with four compartments on each side. These compartments, each illuminated by one of the slit windows, are separated by stone walls that are only 1.5 metres high. The front walls have been replaced with concrete blocks but appear to have been open originally. The building features old roof trusses with collars pegged to the faces of the principal rafters. It is part of a well-designed farmyard layout that includes two other listed buildings and a manure pit.
