Type and Period
Description
Barn dating to about 1600. It is timber-framed, weatherboarded on the west elevation, and the remainder is cement-rendered, and roofed with corrugated asbestos. The barn has four bays, no midstrey, with jowled storey posts, arched braces to tiebeams, and edge-halved and bladed scarfs in top plates. The roof was rebuilt above tiebeam level to lower pitch than original for asbestos cladding, and is hipped. There is a later lean-to against east wall. <1>
