with probably a shippon opposite. The fourth side of the yard consists of a low
stone wall linking the shippon and linhay.

central loft entrance with a sloping slate roof carried on granite corbels and a
blocked entrance below with keystone. 4 loft openings with keystones, 2 ground floor
doorways with keystones, 1 ventilation slit ground floor left. The linhay range has
a loft and was originally weather-boarded, C20 alterations have made the building
