A row of pig-sties, built around the early 19th century, is located immediately to the south-south-east of Meavy Barton.

It has a long rectangular plan, consisting of six pig-sties, each with its own access at the front and a feeding hatch at the rear. The building is single-storey with a roughly regular front that has five doors. At the back, there are four feeding hatches with doors, while the fifth hatch on the right has been converted into a door. Inside, the hatches still have their granite chutes that lead into granite troughs.
