Description
This is a two-unit agricultural building dating from the 19th century, featuring a formerly open-fronted double shed on the left and a lofted two-bay bullhouse on the right. The shed has a slightly projecting front with lower eaves and includes a loft door in its gable, accessed by external steps. At the rear, there are pigsties with a low wall. The bullhouse on the right is equipped with a heck door, a slatted window, and a loft hatch positioned above the window.
The building is constructed from local uncoursed shaley stone, with brick segmental arches above the door and window openings. It has a corrugated steel roof, except for a section over the rear pigsties where original slates remain. There is also a carport on the right side.
Inside the bullhouse, there is a wall manger with a gap above it in the loft floor for feeding purposes.
