Former Stable and Cartshed facing road at Old Rectory.

Rectangular rubble building, whitewashed and with boulder foundations; slate roof with raised eaves (see old roofline on downhill gable). The front has timber lintel over stable door to left and tall boarded cartshed doors to right; also a blocked window between. The rear has a single, central, boarded door; the unusual length of the timber lintel together with the straight joint in the masonry indicates that the opening was formerly (though not originally) considerably broader. Immediately beside this door is the protruding foot of a cruck blade, around which the masonry walling is built. The north-east corner shows a change in the masonry and to the front there are slate steps up the bank. C19 three-seater stone privy in angle to south-west.

4-bay interior, cruck-trusses to south and C19 trusses to north. Both cruck couples survive but are cut at the elbow for the insertion of later ceilings and both are of massive un-chamfered timbers. The blackening of the timbers suggests there may have been an open hearth which indicates domestic use and would reinforce its early date; no evidence of a chimney, though a former smoke bay cannot be ruled out. Cobbled and flagged floors; a recess in the front wall relates to a blocked window; boarded cill. Otherwise mid C19 or modern fittings. Stable to left has three stalls; tack-room to centre and cartshed to right. Blocked window beside the door.
