Shippon has doorway with plain granite lintel at left-hand end; to left of it a small window with similar lintel. To right of doorway are 2 original slit windows. The right-hand gable, fronting road, has 3 further slits in ground storey and a fourth centrally placed in the upper storey; at base of wall is a well-made opening to the shippon drain. Rear wall of shippon has a single slit window. Interior not inspected; upper-floor beams of shippon have been replaced in C20.
