Description
This former barn features large stone rubble walls and a half-hipped roof. The northern side is mainly covered with modern corrugated material, while the southern side has a slate roof and small brick chimneys. The south elevation includes two camber-headed cart entries and a 20th-century window above, both with brick dressings. There is a similar window further to the right. At the right end, the main roof slopes down to create a pentice over a two-storey lean-to structure. Additional ground floor openings are located between this lean-to and the cart entrances on the left.
