Former Horsegang and Threshing Barn, Hazelrig House, Near Amisfield

The former horsegang and threshing barn at Hazelrig House, near Amisfield, dates from the early to mid-19th century. It is a single-storey, rectangular building with a gabled threshing barn range connected to a circular horsegang featuring a conical roof to the north.

The threshing barn is built from squared coursed rubble with ashlar dressings and straight skews at the gable ends, while the horsemill is made of coursed rubble. Both structures are painted white and topped with slate roofs, with the horsemill having graded slates. The horsegang has small square window openings and two large openings for horses on the east and west sides, which show some later infill. It may have been used as a cattle shelter in the mid-20th century, as troughs are visible against the interior south walls.

The long threshing range features a squared-headed cart opening on the northwest side and a door opening to the north. On the south side, there are several openings, including another squared-headed cart opening. There is a modern corrugated iron lean-to extension at the center of this elevation.

The interiors of both the horsegang and the barn were observed in 2013. The power shaft, milling machinery, and gearing have been removed, but the central timber roof post, radial collars, and main structural beam in the horsegang remain. The walls of the eastern range of the threshing barn, which formed a former L-plan, are still standing up to the wallhead.
