The Granary Annexe at Hood House

The Granary Annexe at Hood House is a 17th-century cartshed with a granary above, featuring a 19th-century addition. It is constructed of coursed, squared stone and pinkish brick in English bond, topped with a pantile roof and stone slates at the eaves. The building is two storeys high and has four bays, with the 19th-century addition to the north not considered of special interest.

The south front displays quoins and features different masonry on the right, which may be of an earlier date. On the left side, there are stone steps leading up to a boarded granary door, accompanied by a small slatted window to its right, which has a 4-pane overlight and is set into a keyed lintel. The eaves band is adorned with cyma-moulded kneelers and ashlar coping. At the rear, there is a first-floor window opening with a keyed lintel.

The left gable is made of brick on the first floor, with stone quoins on the right side. It has a massive cambered timber lintel above the cartshed opening, and above that, there is a slatted window with a segmental brick arch, a 4-pane overlight, and a stone sill. Inside, the cartshed features three large-scantling cross-beams, while the granary has king-post roof trusses, two S-shaped tie-beams, and tusk-tenoned purlins.
