{3} Building one is the listed barn. It is of red and grey brick construction in a chequered pattern; the south face of the building has been painted white (in conjunction with all the other outbuildings). The building is open to the roof, the majority of the roof structure has been replaced, but the original tie beam remains in place. The roof covering is currently corrugated metal. There is a large plank door on the north face with timber boarding above; on the south face there is a stable door. There is a red brick ledge (five bricks high) running all the way around the four walls of the building. There is a red brick stack on the north east corner of the interior - it is uncertain what function this has. The floor of the building is a mixture of stone slabs and earth.
