Outbuilding, formerly a pair of bastle houses, reduced in height. Cl6 or early C17. Large rubble with galleting, massive quoins. West part has asbestos roof, east part corrugated iron roof. The eastern bastle has been built onto the gable end of the western. Front elevation: blocked door with massive jambs and lintel, Cl9 sash window, slit window, straight joint, remains of blocked door to former 1st floor, blocked door with massive jambs and exceptionally massive lintel. Rear elevation partly rebuilt with later doors.

An example of 'terraced' bastles, which at one time probably made up the whole of Chesterwood.
