Description

The building is a farm complex at Great Goytre, dating from the 19th century. It consists of a cowhouse, granary, stables, cartshed, and shelter shed, all constructed from rubble stone with brick dressings around the openings and topped with slate roofs.

The cowhouse, which is single-storey and attached at right angles to the southeast wall of the barn, features a boarded door with ventilation slits at the top, a shallow single light window with a stone sill, another similar door, and two additional similar windows. Attached to the right is a two-storey structure that includes the granary, cartshed, and stable block. The east gable has external steps made of brick risers and stone treads. The granary loft has a camber arched doorway with a boarded door, while the ground floor features a larger camber arched doorway with a rectangular overlight and a boarded door.

In the center of the south elevation, there is a broad entry to the cartshed with a segmental arch made of brick voussoirs and a herringbone patterned keystone, leading to boarded double doors. To the right of this entrance, the ground floor has a camber arched doorway with boarded half doors, followed by a square stable window with three glazed upper lights and six thin mullions below. To the left of the entrance is a similar stable window, and on the first floor, there is a 3+3 pane casement window in the center.

To the right of the granary is a single-storey shelter shed with three bays, featuring 19th-century tie beam trusses with angle struts. The cowhouse consists of five bays with 19th-century collar trusses, while the granary roof has three bays supported by 19th-century trusses with notched collars. Flanking the cartshed entry are boarded transverse partitions that form the side walls of the adjoining stables.
