Cant see there being any significant loads on them. Most therell be will be 2.8m high gabled peak on top with an 8m span. With trusses, the truss takes most the load rather than the gables seeing theres no purlins into the gables.
catnic, double rsjs or concrete lintels.

Your gable end wall- double skin? Brick and block?
Mass of the block wall (medium blocks) approx 1650kg,
Mass of brick wall (commons) approx 2128 kg
So not massive loads but significant ones.
