Description

This building is an outbuilding with pigsties located to the west of Home Farm. It is constructed of rubble stone and features a slate roof with a central slatted pyramidal vent. The front of the building has small vent strips positioned below the eaves, and the openings are topped with stone wedge lintels. On the left side, there is a wood-barred opening, along with a doorway to the right of center. The right side contains a long row of former pigsties, which were overgrown at the time of inspection, and has a snecked stone front wall that includes a gateway opening leading to a path towards the main doorway. This wall also defines a yard on the east side of the building and extends to the former pigsties built against the south gable end, which were also overgrown at the time of inspection. The rear of the building features two lintelled openings similar to those at the front, along with a row of vents located below the eaves.
