History
Rectangular agricultural range built into the hill-slope; probably late C18.

To the L of the cart bay is an open entrance with 3 small, square lights diagonally above, that to the centre with a projecting stone sill; further entrance to the upper L, exposed timber lintels. The lower (NE) gable has a plain modern window in a former loading bay.
Interior
Rough-beamed ceiling to cart bay with incised geometric graffiti in the plastered areas between the beams. 2-bay modern roof structure to the byre section; this with sloping earthen floor.
