What is recorded here

Detached single-storey outbuilding, c. 1790, on a L-plan. Façade to north east is rendered, ruled and lined, with four-centre arched doorway having double-leaf sheet metal door and drip moulding over. Stepped crenellated parapet with corner finials and blind cross motif below drip moulding. Rubble stone walls, roughcast rendered facing yard. Pitched slate roofs. Several lean-to structures attached.

The outbuilding is small and of simple design with a striking façade facing the main house. It retains substantial original fabric, and still serves the grounds in which it is sited.
