Description
This is a range of farm buildings and an engine house located about 20 metres south of Lizwell Farmhouse, built between 1844 and 1889. The structure is made of granite rubble, with roofs that are mostly covered in corrugated iron, except for the engine house, which has a real slate roof lightly covered with cement. The buildings are arranged in a U-shaped plan, with the ground floor containing shippons and a root house. The upper part of the base of the U features a bank barn with the engine house situated behind it, both of which are two storeys high. The doorways have plain granite lintels, and the barn includes two ventilation slits just below the eaves. A stone staircase is located at the right-hand end of the building. The historical context is supported by a tithe map from 1844 and a 6-inch Ordnance Survey map from 1889.
