The eastern linhay and the implement shed at its southern end were built together in the 18th century and refurbished in the earlier 19th century. The open-fronted linhay is eight bays long, the east facing open front carried on full height posts. A cob buttress projects from the rear wall. The floor is cobbled. The implement shed is open to the south with a monopitch roof that is the extended hip of the linhay roof. The cob wall between the linhay and shed has partly collapsed.
