Barn approximately 90m north west of Beaumont Hall (EHER 34338)

The west side of the farmyard comprises a late 18th century double brick threshing barn which has two five bay units that are separated by a brick wall.

Historic building survey, 2022 The west side of the farmyard comprises a late 18th century double brick threshing barn having two five bay units that are separated by a brick wall. A brick barn of this size is unusual for the 18th century and it is divided into a North and South Barn. The two barns are separated by a brick wall, in which a door has later been inserted. There are attached lean-to chaff houses to each midstrey located between the north and south elevations of the midstreys. The North end of the barn contains a suspended timber threshing floor, a rare survival. The north end barn was extended northwards when a wide full-height opening was formed between Bay 7 of the 17th century threshing barn (EHER 34336) and the north end of this late 18th century threshing barn. It appears that the original gambrel roof structure of the barn was replaced with a steep double pitch clasped purlin roof structure, possibly during the early 20th century. The roof was tiled with hand-made plain clay tiles on the west roof slope and slate on the east slope. There is evidence of historic fire damage within the lean-to range attached to the east elevation of the barn which indicates that the earlier barn roof may have been destroyed by fire, hence the later roof structure. There is a chaff house on the south elevation of the north end midstrey which is complete with the exception of its roof structure that was replaced during the 20th century. The South end barn resembles the scale and form of the north end barn, however, the south end barn has a brick threshing floor consisting of bricks set on edge in a herringbone pattern. Apart from the central threshing floors, the remainder of the floors in both barns were overlaid with concrete during the 20th century. During the 20th century a grain drier was inserted into the south end of the south barn. At this date, the chaff house to the south end midstrey was altered into a coal hopper. <1>
