• name: Farm Buildings To North East And North West Of Elberry Farmhouse Including Walls, Gates And Piers
• notes: Farm buildings. Mid C19. Devonian limestone rubble. Slated roofs. Appears to be a planned layout north-west of farmhouse, consisting of 2 rectangular enclosed courtyards with a bank barn between them. Front courtyard has lofted cattle sheds and stables; round house behind barn. Rear courtyard has 2 ranges of single-storeyed buildings, probably calf houses. 1 and 2 storeys. Simple, well-preserved buildings, the openings with arches of stone voussoirs. The 2 yards have separate entrances from Elberry Lane, both with semicircular gate piers, although in the rear yard the left pier has been removed; here, however, the original gate with spear-head uprights survives. The rear yard has a second gate opposite the first, in the south-west wall; this also has semicircular piers. The farmstead, including its farmhouse (qv) and cart shed (qv) is an interesting example of a planned layout not often found in Devon, particularly in so good a state of preservation. It occupies an important position on a public path close to Broadsands Beach and is clearly visible from Broadsands Road. Listing NGR: SX8993357097
