Building record 6559/1/13 - Farm building of uncertain function

{1} The building is brick-built, laid in an English Garden Wall bond (one course of header bricks to three courses of stretcher bricks) with bull nosed brick corbels, the roof is again modern Welsh Slate and the roof timbers have been replaced.
The building is unusual in form with a central door on the west facing elevation with a second, smaller door only 3ft to the south. There is a central door in the north gable wall leading to a cross passage between to two yards. Although the building clearly abutts its neighbour the recent re-pointing makes it difficult to establish whether one post dates the other or are contemporary.
Internally, there is nothing of architectural or historical significance remaining with no evidence of its original use.
