Single tier of slit ventilators each side, but yard side now has attached lean-to stone corrugated iron-roofed building. Added to the N gable of the primary barn is a further stone barn with continuous 7 bays with central cartway and full height doors.
Interior
The primary barn has simple trusses comprising tie beam and principal rafters, but some with collars. Three tiers of purlins to later barn. Barn 2, similarly, has tie and collar beam trusses with three tiers of purlins.
