Description
The Cider House, located about 20 metres south of Ashton Farmhouse, is an 18th-century building constructed from random local stone and topped with a half-hipped Welsh slate roof. It stands two storeys high and features two bays. On the north side, there is a central doorway at first floor level, which is accessed by stone stairs. Below this, to the right, is a similar boarded door, followed by a 2-light leaded casement window. There is a single-storey extension against the west gable, and on the east gable, there is a shuttered window with a timber lintel below and a door to the left above. Inside, the machinery remains in place, and as of December 1985, the building was still being used for small-scale commercial cider making.
