Tiled roof, gabled to the south and half-hipped to the north. The south eastern outshot has a deep brick plinth in Flemish bond and is weatherboarded above. The off central cart entrances remain, without doors, but a pintle hinge remains to the southern edge of the eastern cart entrance.

INTERIOR: The wall frame has a midrail and diagonal braces to the corners and adjoining the cart entrances. The upright posts are without jowls except for the four posts adjoining the cart entrances. The roof structure has an angled queenpost roof with clasped purlins and pegged rafters. The attached outshot is of three bays with tie beam and angled queen strut to the purlins.

HISTORY: Shown with current footprint on the first edition Ordnance Survey map of 1871.
