Description

Goitre Wen Farmyard includes cartsheds and pigsties dating from the 19th century. The structures are built from local stone with rubble masonry, and they feature a slate roof. The cartsheds are open at the front and supported by timber posts. The pigsties have small yards in front and low lofts above, which may have served as henhouses. The original yard paving is made of pitched stone.
