Description

Attached three-bay single-storey building, built c.1830, having a projecting central bay. Formerly in use as a fuel depot, now in use as an office. Hipped natural slate roof with clay ridge tiles and overhanging eaves.

Located to south of Custume Barracks and attached to the Riding School (15004178) to the west.

Appraisal

A modest mid nineteenth-century building that forms part of an important group of military-related structures in Custume Barracks. It survives with its early form and much of its early fabric intact.
