CRAMLINGTON DAMDYKES NZ 27 SE NZ 256749 7/66 Farmbuildings to north and west of 8.5.86 Damdykes Farmhouse GV II Farmbuildings around foldyard. Probably late C18; shelter shed extension to south range has 1833 datestone with initials MSS, remodelling of north and west ranges formerly dated by 1863 stone with initials SHSS, now lying at foot of wall. Original parts rubble with roughly-shaped tooled quoins; C19 parts roughly-squared stone with tooled-and-margined quoins and dressings; Welsh slate roofs.

Buildings around rectangular yard entered at south-east corner. Single-storey south range has blocked doorway and 2 windows. West range 5 bays, all but the left 2-storeyed; 2 segmental arches, part-slatted windows above. North range has 2-storey left part with stable door flanked by part-slatted windows, and single-storey right part, continued beyond east range, with segmental arch, 2 doorways and slit vents. Single-storey east range with 2 boarded doors links to farmhouse (q.v.).

Rear elevations: west range shows added shelter shed with 2 openings under timber lintels and hipped roof. North range shows boarded double doors under segmental arch in projecting west bay; circular gingang at right with large stepped outer piers and 3 (formerly 4) smaller piers between; conical roof. At far right, alongside gingang, is tall chamfered opening serving both ground floor and loft.

Most openings in north and west ranges have chamfered alternating-block surrounds; coped gables to 2-storey parts, roofs of single-storey parts hip-ended.

Interior: gingang has heavy east-west tie-beam separate from room structure above, where radial collars carry a central octagonal post on a metal baseplate; raking struts to 2 levels of curved purlins, curved wall-plate.

Formerly part of the Shum-Storey estate based on Arcot Hall (q.v.). An interesting foldyard group with little post-C19 alteration; the gingang roof structure shows carpentry of a high standard.

Altered shelter shed at rear of south range and minor C20 additions to east end of north range are not of special interest.
