Original HER entry merged with NRHE data transfer.
Note: It is not clear if the building is still extant, nor the reason for its delisting. It may have been demolished when/shortly before it was delisted in 1991. The list description gives the NGR as TQ 86124 94674 but this corresponds to a modern building. The NHRE provides the location as TQ 86130 94620 but this is similarly incorrect as the historic mapping shows no building at this location. It is most likely to have been at the mapped location, TQ 8611 9468, which corresponds to a 'T-shaped' building on historic mapping that fits the description of a barn with central midstrey. If this is to be the case, the barn has been demolished. <5>
