East stable range built as 2 stables with hayloft loading bays over each door and flanking windows with harness room. Original arrangement altered by insertion of large sliding door at left end and small central door, both in C20. 13-bay roof. North range has large central gable-ended double barn over a shippon standing higher and breaking forward from flanking granary and linhays.
