Detached nine-bay two-storey former farm outbuilding, built in 1876, now incorporated into a joinery factory. Pitched slate roof with terracotta ridge tiles and yellow brick chimneystacks. Ashlar limestone walls with projecting gable-fronted entrance bay and cut stone quoins. Square-headed window openings with tooled limestone block-and-start surrounds and tooled limestone surrounds. Central carriage arch with tooled limestone block-and-start surrounds. Date 'A.D. 1876' to keystone. Yellow brick wall remains of northern demolished range.
This farm building was built outside the walls of Saint Conleth's Reformatory and was the main structure in the farmyard complex. The reformatory was self-sufficient, provided for by the farm. This structure is now incorporated into a joinery factory and retains its fine, snecked stonework and quatrefoil opening which is a Gothic motif.
