Full description
The northern wing of an 'L' shaped complex. It comprises a stable for three houses at the corner point of the complex. There is still evidence of the partitioning, the manger and the troughs. This is a two storey building with a hay-loft above. In one corner there is a ladder up to the loft. It is propped up in places and there is obviously woodworm in the beams. The hay-loft was not viewed, but is used for storage. The adjoining cow house, a long building two to three times the length of the stable at its end, is also a two storey building. It is used for storage. (DAT, 09/02/2015) <1>
