Description

Range of 2 separate units, built into the slope. The upper unit, the byre, is of limewashed rubble with a Welsh slate roof. Arched doorways at each end face the farm track, stone tiled hood to left and a wide stone buttress between; loft door at gable end, no windows to rear but roof extended to form hood. Lower unit has part pantile part stone tile half hipped roof, which is extended both sides to form porches to the double doors. The stone tiles are perhaps reused from the earlier uphill part. The S side has been extended by outshuts to the level of the porch thus forming a catslide roof. Ventilation slits either side of porch and in gable end have a stone divider midway; further small ventilators to outshuts.

Byre retains some stone stalls and central feed passage. Barn of 4 bays with pegged and bolted tie-beam trusses and 3 rows of trenched purlins has stone threshing floor with stone kerbs and cobbled porch floor. Outshut to right believed to have been used as a bull pen and that to left as a calf shed.
