Description
The outbuilding ranges to the north of Carreghofa Hall date from the 17th and 18th centuries and are constructed of red brick with slate roofs that are hipped at the southeast end. The buildings are two storeys high and form an L-shape. The wing, which has a cellar beneath, is made of early hand-made bricks and features raised gable ends and a projecting gable stack, likely representing the surviving parlour wing of a 17th-century house.
The main body of the building from the 18th century has raised gables, an oversailing eaves course, and a central brick ridge stack. There are remnants of stone foundations at the southeast end, while the brickwork above shows significant disturbance. The garden side was extended around 1917 in red brick, featuring flat-roofed eaves dormers. There is no main facade; the farmyard side of the 18th-century block displays several blocked openings with cambered brick heads. Most windows are three-light 19th-century mullion-transom types with iron-framed casements. A part-glazed plank door is located at the rear. The 17th-century wing has two tall small-paned iron-framed casements on the first floor, set under thin timber lintels.
To the northeast of Carreghofa Hall is a late 18th-century four-bay barn, which has a roof that extends to connect with the farmhouse, creating a covered driveway into the farmyard. The lower end of the barn was converted into a loose-box with a loft above in the 19th century. It is built of stone rubble with roughly dressed stone quoins and a plinth, topped with an iron roof. The barn features large double opposing doors leading to the threshing bay and slit ventilators, some of which are now blocked. The lower end bay has a plank door and a slatted window beneath brick cambered heads, along with a slatted window for the loft and a tall pitching opening. The barn's structure includes pegged king-post trusses and a cambered tie-beam.
There is also a former cowshed or storage barn to the north of Carreghofa Hall, dating from the 18th century. This building is made of red brick with crowstep gables and a slate roof, standing two storeys high with a double tier of slit ventilators for the loft. It has undergone many alterations, but some original cambered heads of former openings are still visible.
The buildings have not been fully inspected, but notable features include a large inglenook fireplace, 18th-century squared beams, two-panel doors (some with raised panels), moulded surrounds, and tall "H"-hinges.
