Description
This is an early 19th century group of buildings, likely incorporating earlier fabric, associated with Bonjedward House. It comprises a northern stable cottage, a garage, a barn, and ancillary buildings.
The stable is a single-storey, five-bay rubble block. Three bays form the original stable with single windows positioned on either side of a door, and a roof ventilator above. A further door and window are situated to the right, with a chimney stack. The roof is piended and covered in grey slates. A later garage bay has been added to the rear, with a cat-slide roof.
The garage is a single-storey rubble building, altered from an earlier form, with a pair of boarded, two-leaf garage doors. It has a gabled roof with pyramidal skewputts to the north and is covered in grey slates. The north gable features a blocked archway and a blocked pointed arch in the gablehead, potentially the remains of a former dovecot. Open implement sheds adjoin the garage to the south, with a corrugated-iron roof.
The cottages are a single-storey, L-plan rubble structure, with the north range harled. The north range has three bays, featuring a door to the left. The rear of the north range has two large windows to the right, two smaller windows to the left, and a further door in the end elevation. The south range comprises six irregular bays, arranged as a door, a louvred opening, a door, a window, a window, and a door from left to right. The rear elevation of the south range has five windows and a door on the inner right. Both ranges have piended roofs covered in grey slates, and brick stacks.
To the west stands a broad, low barn with a piended roof covered in grey slates. It has an entrance to the hay loft from an embankment at the rear.
The buildings form a group of importance with Bonjedward House, its walled garden, and the lodge, which are listed separately.
