Description
The building is a large 4-bay rubble cattleshed located on the southeast side of the Home Farmyard, dating from the 19th century. Each bay is uniquely roofed transversely and is currently used for sheltering sheep. At the rear, the cattleshed features tall and narrow openings in the gables, with one side weatherboarded.
Access to the cattleshed is through a passage from the farmyard, which is covered by a transverse roof extending from the gable end of the hay-store. Adjacent to the cattleshed is a small cowhouse, accessible from the passage, which has feed passages at either end. Further along, there are 2-bay stables that step down from the main stable range. These stables are constructed of rubble with a slate roof and have red brick facing on the upper part of the walls, likely replacing earlier weatherboarding.
The stables have 3-light windows above the doorways at both ends and in the center, indicating that the building may have originally been designed as a cowhouse. At the rear, a corrugated iron lean-to extends from the middle of the cattleshed to the main stable range, supported by iron columns.
