Horse-gin house, early C19. Plastered and tarred clay lump on a tarred flint and brick footing; semi-circular plan at both ends of building. Slated roof, hipped at both ends. Boarded doors. Projecting on the west side is a 4-bay parallel extension open on posts below, with a loft under a slated lean-to roof: slated louvres in the side walls.

A rare example in Suffolk of a horse-gin house, corn being more normally ground by wind or water power in the early C19 in this area.
