{1} Barn. Mid C18. Regular coursed limestone with plain-tile roof. Single-unit 3-bay barn with central cart entrances under wood lintels, that to south is partially blocked. Ashlar gable parapets and kneelers and owl holes in gables. Roof structure has original trusses and purlins.

{3} Limestone walled building with clay tiled roof, 18th century date. Located at the north west corner of a stone walled yard. The yard formerly had an entrance off centre in its south side as well as being accessible via the barn and through at least two points in the yard's north wall. Both the barn and the yard wall are in a very poor state of repair, due to vandalism and stone robbing.
