Four stone built kennels each 10½ feet square with a 17 foot long run.

Door lock to outside in end wall. 

Three smaller kennels, each seven feet wide, under a corrugated roof with spiked iron railings atop a rendered stone wall look like a later addition. 

Two of several rough sketches and notes made at the time - 

November 2004 - with measurements.
