An appealing group of small-scale buildings forming a farm complex of some vernacular interest, as identified by the informal arrangement and proportions to the farm house, together with the traditional construction in locally-sourced materials to all of the structures. Although many of the buildings have fallen into disrepair, the group remains an important feature of the townscape.
