Cadw's description
Location
On the E side of the farmhouse.
History
Built in the late C19, perhaps as a calf cot and shown on the 1889 Ordnance Survey.
Exterior
A weatherboarded timber-framed farm building on a rubble-stone plinth, and corrugated-iron roof. The W gable end, facing the house and yard, has a split boarded door to the L and boarded loft door. A full-height boarded door is in the N side wall, and a shuttered opening is on the L side of the S wall.
Reason for designation
Listed for its special interest as an outbuilding of definite character and as part of a strong farm group at Hirfron.
