Description
The dairy and attached wall, located 3 metres behind Great House Farmhouse, date from around 1650. The dairy is constructed of Doulting rubble with dressed quoins and features a 20th-century pantile roof and a truncated brick stack on the right side. It is a single-storey building with no window openings on the front facade, but it has a central door opening framed by a massive chamfered stone surround, leading to a 19th-century plank door. On the left side, there is a stone mullioned window with three lights that has an ovolo moulding. The substantial rubble wall, which is 2 metres high, runs at right angles to the left return for 4 metres and includes a broad semi-circular head opening in a block surround. This structure is reputedly part of the remains of the "Great House" that once stood nearby.
