Description
The barn range forms the east side of an enclosed yard. It comprises paired barns with lofted cartshed in a single range, to which is attached to the south a pair of pigsties, and to the NW a later single-storeyed shed. Lime-washed squared and roughly coursed stonework, the roofing replaced in profile sheeting, save on the pigsty which retains its stone slab roof. The barns occupy the north section of the range, and have storage bays with tiered long vents either side of the paired full-height doors on either side of the range. Two bay cartshed to the south has dressings in contrasting red stonework; elegant shallow arched heads with stone voussoirs, carried on fine cylindrical column and matching half columns with square imposts. 2 dressed stone oculi over the cart bays, and gable entry to loft, up steps. Attached beyond the steps are the pigsties: roughly coursed rubble stone (with traces of lime-wash) and stone flagged roof. Two sties, the doorways paired at the centre, with vent slits flanking; pens are stone walled, with orthostats forming the dividing partition.
Unusual layout comprising two independent barns divided by a stone wall. Each threshing bay has stone-slab floor. It is suggested that the barns may have processed and stored different types of grain.
