Description

This building is an outbuilding located approximately 5 metres east of Old Hall. It dates from the 17th century and was originally a house, now serving as a farm building. Constructed from coursed squared limestone with ashlar dressings, it features a graduated stone slate roof. The building is two storeys high and has five bays.

The deep chamfered plinth supports the ground floor, which has five 4-centred arched doorways, some of which have plank doors, located to the right of bays 1, 2, 3, 4, and at the centre of bay 5. Bays 1 to 4 contain recessed and chamfered mullion windows, all equipped with dripmoulds, although most of the mullions are missing.

On the first floor, there are five evenly spaced 3-light recessed and chamfered mullion windows. The stone coped gables are topped by the stump of a large stack on the left. The left side features external stone steps leading to a 4-centred arched door on the first floor, with the remains of an external brick bread oven below. The right side has rectangular recesses on the ground floor, which may be the remnants of bee boles. The interior was not inspected during the resurvey. The building is referred to as the Dormitory, indicating it was likely used as sleeping quarters for itinerant farm workers in the 19th and early 20th centuries.
