Full Description
A 16th C timber-frame and brick 3 bay barn, which was extended during the 19th C to incorporate a threshing floor. The barn also contained an area of stabling and a number of lean-to extensions were added through time to provide extra animal shelter. There has been a significant loss of the original frame as it has been repaired with 2nd hand timbers at various points and the roof has been replaced (S1).
