History

Built ca 1870 (shown on 1st edition OS map) as an industrial farm for the Vivod estate; contemporary with the remodelling and enlargement of the main house. Together with various linked ranges they form a U-plan farmyard. Addition to NE end probably ca 1897 (see date on range opposite).

To left is a hopper window high up; 'office' window below with small opening. Doorway with tall overlight near the corner with the dairy and food-store range.
