Cadw's description

On the SE side of the house and occupying the SE side of a narrow farmyard.

Probably early C19, but after the building of the main house, and shown on the 1839 Tithe map.

A cow house of coursed rubble with lighter freestone dressings, and corrugated asbestos-cement roof. Four camber-headed doorways have replaced doors. There are 2 pivoting loft windows, and a 4-pane sash to the R side of the loft, inserted in a brick surround. A blockwork extension is against the R (downhill) gable end.

Listed as a well-detailed C19 farm building forming part of a strong farm group next to the house.
