Description

Greystones Farm is an earlier 19th-century former stable block that has been converted for domestic use. It is a single-storey building with lofts, arranged in a U-shape around a cobbled courtyard. The courtyard is enclosed on the north side by screen walls and accessed through a segmental-arched opening in a low, square, central tower. The structure is built from coursed and squared whin rubble, accented with contrasting ashlar dressings.

The north elevation is symmetrical, featuring a blank rectangular panel above the entrance and a piended roof with a raised cap that serves as a ventilator, topped with a weathervane finial. The screen walls contain blind windows, with sheds located behind them. Each outer gable has a segmental-arched cart opening, which is now glazed, positioned below a single 12-pane sash window. The gables are finished with ball finials. The roofs are slated, and the courtyard elevations have square-headed door and window openings, some of which have been altered. Additionally, there is a dovecot situated above the entrance.
