Description

The former estate granary is an early to mid-19th century granary complex associated with the Hawarden estate, featuring a domestic wing. It is constructed of red and brown brick and consists of a two-storey main range on the right, topped with a continuous shallow-pitched slate roof. A single plain chimney, with its top courses rebuilt, indicates the division between the northern domestic part and the southern granary part, which are otherwise similar in appearance. The front has five bays and an asymmetrical design with irregular window placements on both floors, along with two recessed entrances that have cambered heads. To the right, there is a modern garage door with an added lean-to garage extension.

Beneath a small plain gable located to the right of the center, there is a first-floor loading bay, with a doorway below it and another doorway to the left. The domestic range extends flush with the granary on the left and then rises into a three-storey section that features a plain chimney. The later ground floor entrance is flanked by recessed casement windows, which have 12 and 16 panes respectively on the left and right. A single 12-pane casement window is present on the right at first-floor level. All windows have cambered heads and projecting stone cills. There is also a late 19th-century single-storey porch on the north side, which has a 20th-century door.

To the south, there is a small single-storey brick building with a slate roof and dentilated eaves, featuring two entrances similar to those on the main building.
