Full Description
The north wall is of mortared rubble stone, as is the outer face of the north end of the west wall, with the remaining walls being of brick, although with some indication of a stone basal course or foundation. The east wall bricks appear to be 19th to early 20th century, whilst the south wall bricks are mainly late 20th century. The upper part of the south and east walls are of timber, with windows to the south and a door and small window in the east wall. The roof is of corrugated iron with a skylight. The western part of the building, now a toilet, is a brick built lean-to against the stone west wall of the main shed, with a slate roof. No original internal features survive.
