Description
Dryfeholm Farm is a mid-19th century haybarn that is unusually long. It has an L-shaped plan with 18 bays and a 2-bay return at the west. The continuous roof is slated and supported by cast-iron columns. At the east, it is linked to a stone-built barn. The east and west ends, along with a near-central opening to the courtyard on the south, are constructed from rubble with red ashlar dressings.
