Description
The barns to the east of Crookdake Hall are dated and inscribed structures built in 1840 and 1893, associated with Ballantine Dykes. They are constructed from dressed red sandstone and feature Welsh and greenslate roofs with coped gables and kneelers. There are four adjoining barns, with the left barn having a higher roof line, creating an overall L-shape.
The left barn includes a segmental cart entrance with a dated keystone from 1840 and segment-headed vents. The central barn has a 20th-century sliding door beneath a loft doorway, flanked by cross vents. The right barn features a plank door with a dated lintel from 1893 and loft doorways.
The right-angled barn has a blocked central doorway beneath a reused lintel inscribed with "Sr J.B. A.B. 1670" and the Ballantine arms, along with flanking two-light windows. Between the upper-floor string courses, there is a loft doorway and slit vents. The end doorway has a reused lintel inscribed with "Sr J.B, L.A.B. 1674." These earlier datestones were salvaged from demolished wings or outbuildings of the hall. The barns have group value with Crookdake Hall.
