Full Description

Complex of agricultural outbuildings around a small crewyard, dating to the mid 19th century. Most of the buildings have undergone significant alteration or repair during the 19th and 20th centuries. Forming the North Range of the complex is a low barn, likely used for storage or loading/unloading of goods onto carts, rather than for threshing. It has a large entrance in its east elevation and an infilled entrance of similar size in its west elevation. There are also two infilled segmental arch openings in the south elevation, one of which may have been a window. A significant portion of the brickwork of this building has been replaced with modern brick, and the roof has been replaced with one of machine-cut timbers and corrugated metal sheeting. A single storey brick stable with a hipped pantile roof forms the West Range of the complex.There is an extant timber hayrack on the west wall. Divided from the stable by a breeze block and timber wall is an animal shelter, open at its east elevation to provide access to the courtyard. Forming the southeast corner of the complex are a small ramshackle building of unknown use and a cartshed, the southern half of which has been enclosed to form a separate workshop. The south side of the courtyard is enclosed by a brick wall, which has been reinforced at some point in the 20th century with an angled brick buttress. {1}
