A farm building stood alongside building B until recently. Its west wall is built of stone bonded with an earthy pink mortar, whereas the stone footings of the barn and adjoing structure B are set in clay. Its floor level is lower than the bottom of the footings of building B, showing that it was terraced into the natural slope after Building B was already standing. A small brick trough built into the south-west corner of the building at its construction dates it to the 19th or early 20th century. The building had a cobbled floor directly overlying natural clay. The east end (building H) appears to have been rebuilt at a later date. Other details: Figures 1-5. Plan, photograph.
