Bank Barn And Byre Range Circa 40 Yards South West Of Gilts Farmhouse

The bank barn and byre range, located about 40 yards southwest of Gilts Farmhouse, were built at right angles to the road. The barn features a dated door lintel from 1675, which is weathered but believed to have the initials I.W., and the byre has a dated lintel from 1706 with the initials T. & A.W. The structure is made of coursed, squared rubble with quoins and has graduated slate roofs, including an outshut at the rear of the barn.

The two-storey barn has five bays and a central plank door set in a decorative chamfered surround with the dated lintel above. There are two small windows on either side of the door, one of which also has a chamfered surround. Above the central door, there is a plank winnowing door framed in a chamfered surround. At the center rear, there is a first-floor wagon entrance that provides direct access from the hillside.

Adjoining to the west is a single-storey, two-bay byre range. This range has a plank door in a chamfered surround with a dated lintel on the left side and a garage entrance with plank double doors on the right. There is a range of buildings next to the west of the byre that are not of interest.
