Condition

The stables have received reasonable maintenance and much of it has been sympathetic, with the use of recycled materials from demolished structures to repair the stables structure. Render applied to the lower and interior walls as a repair strategy has obscured some original fabric. Overall the stables are in fair condition. The drying shed has been extended and modified to suit changing farm practices, and in the process the shed has received sufficient maintenance to ensure its stability. Construction details such as the drying racks have been removed to suit the alternative uses such as storage of farm machinery and general storage. However, the structure itself is in fair condition.
