Type and Period
Description
February 2013. Heritage assessment.
A brick-built barn, aligned NE-SW and which lies to the NW of the timber framed cattle shed (EHER 80874). The cartographic evidence suggests that it was built after 1939. This structure is dilapidated and completely overgrown. Only the East elevation is visible, which is apparently formed of red machine bricks, with probable lime mortar, laid in Flemish bond. The use of red bricks and lime mortar would argue that the structure is later 19th century in date and may have been in existence in 1874. The 1939 OS
mapping suggests that it was extended at this time rather then being replaced. It is due to be demolished. <1>

Google Earth imagery suggests the building was demolished sometime between the survey in 2013 and 2017. It does not appear on imagery from 2017. <2>
