Range of farm outbuildings, including 2 barns. C17, C18 and
C19. Stone, timber frame, brick nogging or weatherboarding,
tile or corrugated iron roofs.
A long range of buildings to the N of the farmhouse (qv),
incorporating a threshing barn and a second barn adjoined; at
the left hand end (W) is a lower brick unit, and an open cart
shed returns at right angles towards the farmhouse; there is a
similar open-fronted shed on the far side. At the right hand
end is an extension to the barn and an L-plan lower unit in
timber frame with weatherboard and tile roof.
The C18 threshing barn is in coursed lias stone and tile roof.
A wide pair of plank doors in projecting square piers is
flanked left by 3 over 2 ventilating slits, and right by 5
over 4 slits; the back is similar. A 4-bay queen-post roof
with 2 heavy butt purlins, framed gable wall to the right,
stone threshing floor.
To its left a low early C19 brick and tile gabled unit with 2
segmental-headed doors, a 9-bay open-fronted shed with
corrugated iron roof to the S and 6-bay to the N. The
adjoining C17 barn is square panel timber-framed with brick
nogging, with a wide pair of plank doors, and a series of
square ventilation openings in the panel below the eaves. The
end bay is in concrete block. The interior has 3-bay propped
purlin C17 roof. Beyond the second barn is a short, lower
brick and tile unit, and a C19 L-plan lower range returned to
the S.
This extensive range, with the free-standing stable block (qv)
and the farmhouse to the S, is a major element in this farm
group.
