Description
The former byre at the Old Rectory is a 19th-century building positioned at right angles to the road. It is constructed of whitened rubble with boulder foundations and features a slate roof, raised eaves, and deep verges with plain bargeboards. The building has a wide entrance with modern boarded doors and a curved, exposed lintel, along with a smaller entrance to the right that has a similar lintel and door. There is a ruined pigsty against the south-east gable, which includes a loft opening. Additionally, there is a 19th-century stone-built three-seater privy located in the angle between the two ranges.
Inside, there is one complete cruck truss remaining at the right (north-west) end, while the other trusses to the left are of the late 17th century or early 18th century pegged tie-beam type. The timbers in this section are thinner than those found in the other range, which includes the stable and cartshed. The width of the right-hand bay, with the cruck truss positioned unusually close to the gable end, indicates that the original timber-framed building may have extended further to the north-west and was likely connected to the former stable and cartshed. The cowshed at the left end features a cobbled floor, while the middle section has a flagged floor. The rest of the interior has been converted for storage use.
