Description

The granary, located in the yard of Low Sunbrick Farmhouse, is likely from the 18th century and has undergone later alterations.

The building has two storeys and consists of two bays, with a lower wing attached. On the ground floor, there are two plank doors and a casement window, while the upper floor has two 2-light mullioned windows. Access to the first floor is via dog-leg steps leading up to an entrance on the right-hand side. The rear wing of the steps includes a plank door at the top and a small window along with another plank door on the ground floor of the return.
