Byre, Barn And Gin-Gang To North-East Of Post Gate Farmhouse

The byre, barn, and gin-gang located to the north-east of Post Gate Farmhouse date from the early 19th century and were built in several phases. The structure is made of sandstone, featuring both rough tooling and herringbone tooling, and has pantiled roofs. The western section is a long, single-storey range with a loft, containing five stable doors with small windows in between. There is a stone staircase leading to a boarded loft door on the west return. The eastern part is constructed with more narrowly-coursed sandstone.

Attached to the south is a solid gin-gang with a half-octagonal end and a hipped roof, which includes a boarded door and small high openings. The barn has cart doors at its eastern end, and the rear elevation is only slightly above one storey due to the rising ground. The three pitching doors are positioned just above the four entrance doors, all of which are boarded. There are irregular openings, including some slit vents, and a drive shaft for a belt-driven threshing machine in the eastern section.
