An extensive model farm was begun by the Assheton-Smith family using the wealth created by Dinorwic Slate Quarries. This enabled them to carry out continual improvements to farming practice on the Vaynol Estate. The 3 ranges S of the Long Barn appear later than those to the N.
Built of rock-faced stone with a slate roof. Single storey animal accommodation and stores. The E side is largely blank; the W side has voussoirs and keystones to windows and door openings, with horizontal slit ventilators above. The windows are of the small pane pivot type. Central broad waggon entry. The N gable end has a similar louvred rectangular loft opening and offset boarded door. An Avery weighbridge is located at the N end. Two louvred roof ventilators.
Included for group value with the neighbouring listed items as part of the important and well preserved model farm complex of the late C19 at Vaynol Farm.
