The building retains a sub-medieval raised cruck structure, probably of the C16.
The building is built of local stone rubble, with a corrugated iron roof. It comprises 4 bays, with a stone built extension on the second bay on the SW side. A large corrugated iron door opens into the lower end bay. The upper gable end is immediately adjacent to the road.
The building is of 4 bays, the three lower bays divided by raised cruck trusses springing from the stone walls at approximately 1.5m above the floor. The N end bay is divided from the rest of the interior by a tie beam and collar truss, the apex of the principals are halved and notched to carry a later ridge piece. The S end cruck truss has a stub tie, and 2 tiers of purlins, the upper appearing to have had a wind brace each side.
Included, notwithstanding the reroofing of recent times, as an interesting example of raised cruck construction, and of particular interest as forming, with the farmhouse, a smallholding of early origin where the house and farm building are built in the same tradition. Together they form a group of buildings in their original form without later extensions, thus are largely complete, and as such of some rarity.
