BUCKLAND MONACHORUM BUCKLAND ABBEY SX 46 NE 3/121 Calf pens directly to north-east of the Infirmary
GV II
Calf pens originally cattle shelter: Circa mid C19 but probably incorporating some medieval walling. Stone rubble walls; the tall rear wall has a pronounced batter. Gable ended slate roof. Row of loose boxes set around 3 sides of a courtyard, they may originally have been open-fronted for use as a cattle shelter. The battered rear wall appears much earlier and was probably incorporated into the C19 building. Single storey. Irregular front of 10 doorways with intermediate windows around 3 sides of a courtyard. At the rear the ground drops considerable and the tall battered wall has 2 buttresses, one of which is simply constructed of rubble but the other is of granite ashlar, similar to those of the infirmary and the tithe barn (q.v.).
