History

The buildings were probably constructed in the late C18 or early C19.

Exterior

Built of local rubble stone, with slate roofs. The range is 'L'-shaped on plan forming part of 2 sides of the yard. The NNE side consists of a single storey range of workshops etc., with 4-pane sash windows and various openings, terminating to the right in a 2-bay 2-storey cottage with a near-centre boarded door and 4- and 6-pane windows. The roof is hipped. To the left, the range ends with a slightly higher building with a pyramidal roof and knob finial, having a granary on the upper floor, which acts as a turning point for the single storey range running at right angles WSW, providing further accommodation for horses and two cart openings. It ends in a walled driftway running to the outer farmyard to the N. Some good cobbled paving in front of the ranges with patterning in white pebbles.
