Description

Red brick in garden wall bond, with slated roofs and shaped bargeboards to gables. The symmetrical plan comprise 2 enclosed yards separated by a large 6-bay building, having an open-fronted cart house with round arches, and a loft over, facing the farm. Each side of this are 2 small rectangular stock yards with a central gate, serving 3 animal houses each side. Each of the main square yards has a covered driftway, with framed and boarded doors giving access to the perimeter feeding walk which continues round the outer sides, and on the inner side of the pens facing the small yards. The SW yard has a lower peninsular, but apparently contemporary, building. The buildings have boarded stable doors in chamfered frames, and ventilated windows, with slats to the lower section, all openings having slight segmental brick heads. Octagonal ventilator turret with spire at the centre. Some panels of ventilated brickwork on gables.

The ample feeding walks provide access to the timber manger and trough below, and are served by drops from the feed storage above. Ladders provide access to the lofts. The roof collar-trusses over the central barn support 2 lower purlins, and have raking strut to queen posts.
