The farmstead included a range of timber-framed cob and thatched buildings, including a barn and open fronted cartsheds, about 36 metres in length. Most of these were demolished between 1945 and 1960. It seems likely that the surviving barn was of five bays, approximately 5 by 17.5 metres overall, but that only the two westernmost bays survive.
It is essentially a timber-framed building with a brick wall in the lower part of the north wall. This is presumed to be original. Above the brickwork are panels of cob set between horizontal timber rails, an interesting feature, noted only on one other building in Devon, near Sidmouth.
