3/78 Courtyard of farmbuilding - approximately 8 metres south- west of Waye Barton GV II
Courtyard of farmbuildings, now all used as stables. Probably late C18-early C19, parts may be C17. Granite stone rubble with large dressed quoins; corrugated iron roof, formerly thatch. Plan: 3 ranges of farmbuildings around a long and narrow farmyard which includes a dung pit. All face into the courtyard and are now used as stables. Apart from the narrow linhay at the south-east end their former function is not certain. The north- east range was probably stables from the beginning. The south-west range was probably cow byres originally. All have haylofts over. Exterior: The long south-west range on the uphill side is propped by a number of broad raking stone rubble buttresses. 4 of the 5 compartments have doorways with small windows to right. The right end compartment also has a doorway but it has 1 slit window to left and 3 to right. There are more slit windows to the hayloft, 3 each end with 2 hayloft loading hatches between. The roof is gable-ended. The south-eastern range is a 3 1/2 bay linhay connecting the 2 other ranges. Only the ground floor is now open-fronted. The tallet/hayloft is clad with corrugated iron. Granite posts support the crossbeams. Posts are set into the top of the beams to support A-frame trusses (Alcock's type S2). The north-eastern range has doorways either end with a pair of small windows between and a hayloft loading hatch left of centre. Roof is gable-ended. The joinery of the doors and windows is plain throughout and most of the doors are C20 replacements. Interior. The carpentry detail is plain and sturdy. The roofs are A-frame trusses with pegged or spiked lap-jointed collars. The dungpit along the centre of the yard is lined with granite and terraced into the slope. It is still used.
