Description
Circa early to mid early 19th century. Single storey, rectangular- plan, gabled former threshing barn range adjoined to a circular horsegang with conical roof to the north.
The threshing barn is constructed of squared coursed rubble with ashlar dressings and straight skews to the gable ends, and the horsemill is of coursed rubble, both are painted white and have slate roofs. The horsemill has graded slates.
Small square window openings remain to the horsegang, with two large openings for horses to the east and west, with some later infill evident to both. Possibly used as a cattle shelter mid 20th century as troughs are evident against the interior south walls.
The long threshing range has a squared headed cart opening to the north west and door opening to north. To the south there are several openings, including a square headed cart opening. There is a modern corrugated iron lean-to extension at the centre of this elevation.
The interiors of both the horsegang and the barn were seen in 2013. The power shaft, milling machinery and gearing have been removed, though the centre timber roof post, radial collars and main structural beam to the horsegang are extant. The walls to the east range of the threshing barn (forming former L-plan) are extant up to wallhead.
