10/2 Barn 750 metres east of junction with High Buston Road II

Guano storage shed, C18 extended in late C18 or early C19. Rubble with cut quoins and dressings except for brick rear elevation; Welsh slate roof except for C20 roofing felt on north part. Long low rectangular building. East side shows right-of-centre boarded double doors under segmental arch, blocked doorway and 3 blocked windows; row of blocked rectangular vents at mid-height. Left part of wall, and each return, have triple-stepped batter. Coped end gables. Returns show similar blocked vents and slits in gables. Rear elevation shows similar openings; right end part is stone, with stepped batter; left-of-centre joint and set-back marks extension.

Interior. Late C18 or early C19 strapped king-post trusses, carried on wall posts at rear.

Included for historical interest. Alnmouth imported guano (used as a fertiliser) in the C18, which due to its smell was stored as far as possible from the main harbour. Following the 1806 flood and the change of course of the River Aln the former estuary silted up and the shed passed to its present use as a barn.
