Barn and attached cow houses aligned approximately east-west. One storey and loft. C19 dentil brick eaves cornice, and dentil brick verge to C19 addition. South side: 4 loft openings, first and third from right with chamfered reveals. Ground-floor chamfered Tudor-arched stone doorway to right with partly blocked 2-light stone chamfered-mullioned window to left; pair of boarded barn doors off- centre to left with segmental-headed stable door to right and slatted window to left. C19 addition to left with 2-light segmental-headed windows flanking boarded door on each floor. Left-hand gable end with datestone inscribed: "VRC/1863". One-storey block adjoining to left with segmental-headed window to right and 2 segmental-headed boarded doors to left.
