Description

Attached multiple-bay single- and two-storey outbuildings, built c. 1800. Now disused. Pitched corrugated-iron roofs to two-storey blocks around east yard. Hipped slate roof to two-storey block to west yard. Single-pitched slate roofs to single-storey block in west yard. Random rubble limestone and red sandstone walls to two-storey blocks, roughcast rendered walls to single-storey blocks. Square-headed openings with remains of timber louvers. Cut tooled limestone square-profile gate piers to entrance to west yard set in rubble limestone boundary wall.

Appraisal

Though now disused, the survival of the Dunkettle outbuildings in their original position aids our knowledge of the planning and usage of this historic demesne throughout the eighteenth century and beyond.
