Two adjoining Ranges of Farm Buildings, with a Horse Gin at Halton Farm

The two adjoining ranges of farm buildings at Halton Farm are arranged in a right angle, with the northern limb parallel to the road and the other extending south towards the house. They are constructed from high-quality stone rubble, featuring quoins and ashlar dressings, and currently have corrugated sheet roofing that likely replaced the original slate.

The northern east-west arm includes a tall cartway facing the yard, which has a segmental stone arch with a keystone dated 1823, though this opening is now blocked. There are two high-level pitching doors, a central dovecote, and a door at the eastern end. The roadside elevation and gable end display three tiers of regularly spaced slit ventilators.

At the eastern end, there is an octagonal horse gin house made of stone, which originally had large ventilation openings in the walls, now blocked and replaced by a wide axial opening for farm machinery. The northern-south range mirrors the other, featuring stable doors and part-glazed vented windows on the ground floor, along with pitching doors above, and a similar blocked cart opening to the yard. The gable ends are coped and have kneelers.
