Loft steps on the south side below the projection and sheltered by its gabled roof.

Both kilns preserve their original cowls. Stowage roof half-hipped at west end. The south elevation of the stowage is 2 windows, both the brick footings of the outshut, the windows with top-hung shutters. Door into the outshut to the right (east). Timber ladder between stowage and the square kiln, to the right. The square kiln has a probably late C19 panelled door on the south side with big strap hinges and original lock box, pent roof over door. The north elevation of the kiln has a C20 garage addition and a C20 opening into the kiln with an iron girder as the lintel. The north elevation of the stowage has 2 first floor 5-light unglazed mullioned windows with slender mullions and one unglazed ground floor window. C19 door on north side into west end outshut.
