May 1990: External inspection reveals the steading to be partly derelict, though its structures appear sound. The south range is still roofed but its openings are unsecured or else bricked up. The east range is inhabited. November 1995: The owner's agents report that all the ranges were in use until 2 years ago. The owner is currently exploring future uses for the buildings, perhaps in co-operation with outside organisations. He would not be prepared to sell, but may consider a long term lease. May 1996: The steading is upgraded from a category B- to a category A-listing. March 2000: No change reported. October 2007: External inspection reveals the unoccupied buildings appear to be in poor condition.

20 May 2014: External inspection finds the building remains in much the same condition as seen previously.
