Open arcaded ground floor to northern building, altered open ground floor to southern building. Timber slatted openings with stone sills to first floors. Hipped slate roofs.
Appraisal
Part of a group of wonderful demesne outbuildings, together forming large enclosed courtyard and grounds. The original qualities and charm of these storage sheds are still present due to their little-altered fittings and design. Together these structures are a valuable asset to the former demesne, their orientation enhancing the air of classical formality in the yard.
