A modest complex of outbuildings associated with Huntingdon House (15402011). They are well-built using good quality local limestone and retain their early fabric and appearance. These outbuildings help to give an insight into the resources required to maintain a country house during the eighteenth and nineteenth centuries. The handsome entrance gates to the northwest and the robustly constructed rubble limestone boundary walls complete the setting of this good quality composition. This complex, including the gates and boundary walls, forms part of an interesting group of structures associated with Huntingdon House along with the main house (15402011) and the gates and gate lodge (15402212) to the northeast.
