Two barns at right angles and stable. (Noted residential 03/2017.)
Early to mid C18 west barn and early to
mid C19 east barn, end stable, later additions. Slate rubble with quoins.
East barn with through stones, west barn on boulder plinth; slate roofs.
Boarded doors, slits and small square vents. South elevation has two windows,
one later, flanking entrance with pitching eye over to east barn, earlier
west barn has steeper roof pitch and blocked loading door. West elevation
has lean-to cow house and waggon entrance. South end is cow house with loft
over, to north a C19 stable wing. North elevation of west barn is roughcast
with roofless lean-to projection; east elevation has entrance. West barn
has later lean-to stable partly blocking large entrance with pitching hole
above.
INTERIORS: the older 4-bay barn has pegged principal-rafter trusses
with two tiers of purlins; two tie beams replaced. Shippon has old slate-slab
partitions in pegged frames. East barn and stable to west have C19 trusses.
A notable feature of this building is the inscriptions in good late Georgian
style, some dated 1879, similar to those on Wreaks Causeway End bridge (q.v.)
and local buildings. West barn south-west elevation has direction signs;
"BROUGHTON" and "ULVERSTON/5 ML". Others to south and east elevations of
barns, west stable and east stable said to be names of stallions standing at
stud at the Ship Inn and their owners, e.g. "JOHN GRAHAM/& TOPSMAN",
"GALLOWAY JACK"; others: "THE/CHARMING MONTH/OF MAY", "DREARY WINTER",
"COME AND TURN THE HANDLE", are similar to those on Wreaks Causeway End
bridge.
