Description
A large stable block of rubble stone with bigger quoins, bullnose brick dressings and a slate roof hipped to the R. A central open wooden cupola retains a single bell and weathervane. The doors have been replaced in original openings. Facing the house is a doorway with overlight on the L side, and then 4 doorways and a window. Set back further R is the addition to the original building added in the third quarter of the C19. It has a single doorway and window. From the L end, the loft has a small-pane window, then 2 shuttered openings, between which is an oculus with flanking dated tablets and the initials 'RL'. Set back further R are 2 smaller oculi.
Against the R gable end is the brick base of a former water tank. In the rear wall a vertical joint marks the 2 main phases of the building. To the R of the joint the rear has doorways at the ends flanking 2 rear windows incorporating original cast iron sliding vents, above which are 2 loft doors, the L-hand of which has a renewed brick threshold.
The interior walls incorporate ledges for nesting pigeons.
