Barns Adjoining Manor House

The barns adjoining the Manor House have their origins in the late 16th century and likely include a bastle-type house. The date of 1632, along with the initials I.A., is found over the entrance and may correspond with the adjoining buildings to the right. The structure underwent significant alterations and extensions to the left in the late 18th century, featuring an inscription over the entrance that reads "James & Margaret Atkinson" along with a date that could be 1793, though it is now partly erased.

The barns are constructed from mixed sandstone rubble and topped with a common graduated green slate roof. They are two storeys high with multiple bays, built on a slope, which makes them appear as a single storey from the rear. The central bays represent the original house and are characterized by extremely thick walls. The late 16th-century entrance features a chamfered red sandstone surround, a chamfered and shaped lintel stone, and slightly splayed jambs on the inside, which include two sets of drawbar holes.

The walls appear to have been refaced in the late 18th century, obscuring many original features, which have been replaced by slit vents. The rear wall has been raised in height at two different periods. The barn to the left has entrances and a loft door with plain stone surrounds and slit vents, as well as two large cart entrances at the rear that provide access to the upper floor barn. The barn to the right features a large round archway passage leading to a more recent house, with two small windows above that have chamfered surrounds and holes for iron bars. There is also a later entrance and an earlier filled upper floor entrance above, with a window to the right partly covered by a 19th-century single-storey extension.

The rear of the barns has similar windows above the arch and a large cart entrance to the upper floor barn on the left. A 20th-century cattle shed now covers the original farmyard; this and all other adjoining buildings are not included in the listing. A detached barn to the north-east is listed separately in Castle Carrock, while the Manor House, dated 1786, underwent extensive alterations in the 1860s and is not listed.
