This has already caught the eye of another Geograph contributor who, like me, wondered about its history. It is marked on the first edition of the Ordnance Survey six-inch map, with a well beside it which would be visible in this view if it still existed. I surmise that it was originally a cottage, and that at some later date a larger opening was made for it to be used for livestock or machinery.
