Barn approx 30m N of New Hall (EHER 38619)

A mid 18th century timber framed barn with later stable block extension. There is evidence for a horse powered gin to drive machinery and a 19th century rear porch was probably added to house a barn engine providing steam power. During the 20th century, the building was used as a garage and workshop, and underwent further alteration.

August 1986. Grade II listed. An 18th century timber framed and weatherboarded three-bay barn with a later lower extension to the left (West). The roof is covered in red plain tiles and pantiles and there is a five-light window in the extension. There are three double vertically boarded doors to the barn. <1> See photo <2>. August 2016. Heritage assessment. A mid 18th century timber framed barn with later alterations. Designed without porches, it would have originally been used as a store house for grain. There is evidence for a horse powered gin to drive machinery and a 19th century rear porch was probably added to house a barn engine providing steam power. An extension to the West was added in around 1800, providing horse stalls and a hayloft. At the other end of the building the present wood store was also added at this time, probably to store processed grain as the walls were brick-nogged to deter vermin. The original barn was five-bays wide, with two large doorways in the midstrey. The floor in the second bay is a 19th century insertion and, similarly, the first bay has been lined with 20th century lath and plaster characteristic of the 1920s and 1930s. A similar lining has been applied to the wood store and the roof removed. The current doors were inserted in the 20th century, and the building used as a garage and workshop. The stable was re-roofed, also in the 20th century. <3>
