Full Description
Range of outbuildings to the east of the former Castle Inn. The two-storey former storage building at the northern end of the range appears to be the earliest part, having very likely been constructed in the mid 19th century, at the same time as the adjacent former Castle Inn (see PRN 56762). It is built in red brick in a typical agricultural design. The eastern elevation features an arched cart doorway, an upper hay loft door, diamond patterned ventilation holes, and plain gables with a slate covered pitched roof. Single-storey extensions then appear to have been added to the south and west of this structure, at around the end of the 19th century. All of the range was constructed of red brick, laid in 3-course Flemish Garden Wall bond, and featured pitched roofs of slate. Only the late 19th century western extension to the range was surveyed in detail in November 2015, during the programme of historic building survey, although the other parts were briefly described. This part of the range appears to have been used to provide additional stabling for customers of the adjacent public house. {1}{2}
The former storage building at the northern end of the range was the subject of a site visit and photographic survey in January 2018, conducted to inform its proposed conversion to a private dwelling. {3}
