Description
This is a barn and cattle shelter range built around 1820, located approximately 5 metres north of Skaife Hall Farmhouse. It is constructed from coursed squared gritstone with ashlar dressings and has a corrugated asbestos roof. The building forms an L-shape, featuring a 9-bay, 2-storey south-facing range with a 2-bay barn attached to the right.
The main range originally had an open arcade with round arches and impost bands on the ground floor, although the left bay is now obscured by a later low range that is not of special interest. Each pier has three notches on the left and three slots on the right for wooden bars, and the left jamb stone of each arch is marked with incised Roman numerals I to VII. There is a circular pitching eye above each arch and moulded stone gutter brackets.
On the south gable of the barn, there is a circular opening on the ground floor to the right, a central board door with tie-stone jambs on the left return, a circular opening above it, and a square window to the left. This range of farm buildings represents a type developed on model farms in the late 18th and early 19th centuries, designed to provide sheltered accommodation for cattle with hay storage above, adjacent to the yard.
