The shippon and dung pit are located to the south end of the south yard and match their description on the 1919 sale particulars. The building measures 10.7 by 3.6 meters and is of an attractive masonry build using large roughly dressed quoins and large irregular blocks packed up with smaller lumps so that broad irregular courses can be seen. The roof is gable-ended. The ground floor room is divided into two unequal rooms by a cross wall with connecting doorway. Both rooms are cobbled and have the remains of stalls along the rear walls and loft space above.
The shippon is the best preserved of the old farm buildings and most of the carpentry is original. The roof is covered with corrugated iron.
