Cartshed And Granary, Temple Mains Farm, Innerwick

This is an early 19th-century farm steading, with later additions from the mid-19th century, located at Temple Mains Farm, Innerwick. The buildings are constructed of random rubble with stugged ashlar dressings and have pantile roofs with slate eaves courses, punctuated by late 19th-century skylights. The layout is irregular.

The East range steps down, following the slope of the ground to the South. The northern block is taller, with a piended (hipped) end, and adjoins a lower, longer section via a mutual gable. A blocked door is visible on the North side. An office is incorporated into the taller block, featuring a window flanked by two doorways on the West elevation. The lower range has irregularly spaced openings, originally for stables, on its West elevation, and two pyramidally capped, louvred ventilators. The interiors retain cobbled floors, with brick setts paving the carriageway to the West.

The cartshed and granary is a rectangular block comprising cartsheds of two different dates. The North elevation features two widely spaced segmental cart arches, with small-paned granary windows above. A later timber forestair has been added to the East elevation, with a recessed doorway inserted, disrupting the eaves of the piended roof and being flanked to the right by a granary light. The original stone forestair to the granary door remains in the gable of the West elevation, flanked by windows, with a blocked triangular vent in the gable head. A slightly later stone lean-to cartshed with a cat-slide roof has been added to the South elevation, featuring a timber lintel and two wide cart openings divided by a single cast-iron column. The granary has a timber floor.

A rectangular threshing mill, with a granary above, originally adjoined the West range (now demolished) and has a piend roof to the South. It features two granary windows on the East side, and a gabled hayloft projecting above the doorway on the West side. The engine house, a tall, piend-roofed single-story building, abuts the mill at the North end of the West side, with a doorway on the West side and a taller doorway flanked by a window on the South side.

The stalk is a tapering, circular brick structure with moulded neck courses and a tall, ashlar-coped pedestal set within the re-entrant angle to the North of the engine house.

The West range has been largely demolished and replaced with a modern building. The North range is of little architectural merit. The three groups of buildings described here are each good examples of their type, retaining noteworthy original details. The farm was known as Westhall until around 1900.
