Shippon with hay loft, early nineteenth century. Red brick, in Flemish Bond, with slate roof. Two storeys, eleven bays. Three-bay-wide, projecting, central entrance, containing tall boarded double doors on strap hinges with stone hinge blocks. The doors are slightly recessed in an elliptical arched opening and are flanked by smaller boarded doors in segmental arched openings. The four bays left and right of the projecting entrance had four similar doors but only two now remain, each side. Hopper light windows, with glazing bars, at shippon level and rectangular pitch holes with flat stone sills, segmental heads and boarded doors, on strap hinges, at loft level. Two pitch holes now blocked each side and a further pitch hole, which surmounts the arch of the main opening, is also blocked. There are breather holes in "X" pattern in the spaces between the pitch holes.
