Small rectangular cowhouse; C17. Of local rubble construction with slate roof; slab-coped gable parapets with crude stone kneelers. The main (W) side has entrances to the L and R with late C19 or early C20 pegged frames and boarded doors (that to the L with inset glazed panel); 4-pane sash window to the centre. The N gable has a plain-glazed upper loading bay and a C20 brick lean-to with corrugated asbestos roof. Adjoining the S gable to the E is a later rubble wall, which slopes down for a short distance before terminating.
