East side wall is of random rubble patched with brick, except at loft level, which is of hand-made brick; opposed segmental arched wagon entrances (now mostly blocked with brick) have chamfered surrounds of dressed stone, rusticated voussoirs and block keystones, and further north both sides have 2 chamfered doorways altered as windows and one square loading door to the loft; north gable wall has 3 doorways with chamfered surrounds and a similar loading door above. Interior: traditional arrangement of central feeding passage and flanking manure passages, with 2 rows of double stalls; (roof and interior of south end not inspected). Item said to be surviving east range of formerly more extensive complex to the west, to which the wagon archways gave access.
