THE BUILDINGS

The traditional buildings are of a stone construction under a tin roof with a stone, concrete, and earth floor. Split into five useful compartments and having been used for general storage, stabling and calf housing historically. The building complements the traditional feel to the farmyard exceptionally well. Part of the building was re-roofed with slate tile and the floor has been lifted with the view to converting said part of the barn. No formal planning was applied for previously.
A second traditional building of stone construction under a tin roof again provides excellent opportunities for conversion to a diversified use.
A significant agricultural building of steel portal frame construction under a tin roof with tin cladding to all sides with a double sliding door, concrete floor and apron.
