A useful courtyard lies to the rear of the cottage providing hardstanding and a turning area previously used for agricultural vehicles. The farm buildings are of mixed repair and previously served as workshops, cattle store and a hay store. Neighbouring buildings have been redeveloped into residential accommodation.

The buildings are generally in need of some repair and attention, although provide a range of basic storage facilities.
