It has a granary outshot on brick piers to the West of the midstrey and has lost an eastern outshot sometime in the 20th century. The original cladding is hand cut elm weatherboarding. The midstrey has an excellent stone slab threshing floor. It was converted for animal use in the 20th century.

August 1986. Grade II listed. An 18th or 19th century timber framed and weatherboarded barn with a gabled midstrey to the North. The roof is clad in corrugated asbestos. There is a granary outshot on brick piers to the right of the midstrey. The outshot has a wooden shutter. There are double vertically boarded doors to the midstrey. <1> June 1999. Heritage assessment. This is a five-bay threshing barn with a central midstrey facing North. It has a granary outshot on brick piers to the West of the midstrey and has lost an Eastern outshot sometime this century. It was built as one unit in elm and on a substantial brick plinth, probably in the 18th century. The original cladding is hand cut elm weatherboarding. The midstrey has an excellent stone slab threshing floor showing that a considerable investment was made on the estate when this barn was built. The floor may have been reused from an earlier barn, of which the tie beams had been reused to build the present door posts. The main doors are original and in good condition, with the lower area covered with slot-in boards for air control when threshing. The lower rear doors are in a poorer state but were originally similar design. The granary outshot appears to be original to the barn construction. A later door has been cut into the West end and a flap vent in the North wall. All the iron work for doors still extant is original and late 18th century. The East outshot is shown on the 1897 map, as is an open fronted outshot to the South running the full length of the barn. These were almost certainly removed early in the 20th century when a timber floor was inserted through the barn and midstrey. This appears to show a conversion to animal usage with the upper level for feed or used as a feed store, loaded by high level doors inserted into the East wall of the midstrey and the East gable wall of the barn. This is also an explanation for the removal of the East outshot to allow wagons to access the high level door. <2>
