The farm buildings are well constructed from locally quarried limestone. The medieval face pegged jointed cruck truss in the shippon and the 18th century open -fronted cart shed with limestone cylindrical piers, are important survivals. Evolved courtyard. Loose courtyard, with farmhouse to west, and shippon, with medieval two bays to west end, to north. L-shaped south east corner formed by an 18th century threshing barn and the rear of a long, 18th century open-fronted cart shed. There is a small early 19th century cattleshed at the east end of the cart shed.
