10/74 Byre north-east of Cumcatch

II

Byre, formerly Bastle House. Late C16 with C19 alterations and additions. North-east wall is extremely thick mixed rubble, with rubble additions, Welsh slate roof with stone ridge and hips. Formerly 2 storeys, probably 3 bays. Only north-east wall remains with early C19 additions to left and right, under common roof, with rebuilt south-west wall; lean-to farm buildings now cover part of north and all of south wall. One chamfered surround small window, beside C19 entrance, with holes for cross bars now removed, is the only original opening visible. Original entrances to ground and upper floor were probably in southwest wall; no internal remains of stone vaulting. Other filled entrance to right is probably C18, with wooden lintel. In the Gilsland Survey of 1603, this is referred to as 'a faire stonehouse'. See RCHM, Shielings & Bastles, 1970, p.76.
