The Grade II listing text reads: "Steelyard, a device for weighing waggons, probably C18 in origin. The machinery is raised on a yellow gault brick base and is protected from the weather by a timber frame and weather-boarded casing with tiled gabled roof. Much of the machinery is probably late C19 or C20 but part of the main arm and post are original." Another view: Image
