3/120 Piggery and cartshed adjoining - rear of Carminowe Farmhouse

GV II

Piggery and cartshed or traphouse. Circa 1860. Shale rubble with dressed granite quoins, jambstones and lintels. Scantle slate roofs part grouted and part slurried built following slope of land over piggery linked to shippon roof qv. at left (north) and trap house wall, right, and hipped to front over trap house and clasping corner of service wing of farmhouse at rear. Plan: range of 5 pigs' pens, left, and deeper trap house right. The far left pigs pen is larger, presumably for weaned pigs. All have doorways and drain holes at the front (west) and feeding hatches at the rear. The trap house is linked to the house in such a way that swill could be taken from the kitchen to feed the pigs, so having a secondary function as a lobby. Single storey. West front with 5 door piggery left and large doorway of trap house right. The piggery is built following the slope of the land sloping down to the left. The left hand doorway is wider. All openings have their original ledged doors or hatches (rear). The trap house has double doors (one removed at time of survey, 1986) with slightly cambered oak lintel over. Interior not inspected. Carminowe was an important manor from the C13. Part of a planned group of buildings both innovative in design and surviving as built. The trap house is one of two similar buildings flanking the gateway to the rear courtyard of the farmhouse, the other building being the stable and therefore complementary in function.
