Description

This is a 17th-century barn and loose boxes that are attached to Redgate House Farmhouse in Wolsingham. The building is constructed from sandstone rubble with ashlar dressings and quoins, and it has a roof made of corrugated sheeting. It stands two storeys high and consists of three bays.

On the south elevation, there is a ground-floor boarded Dutch door located to the right of the center, featuring a flat Tudor-arched lintel and irregular jambs. There are side steps leading up to a similar first-floor door, which is set in wide jambs with tongue-stopped moulded chamfers and a renewed chamfered lintel. To the right on the ground floor, there is a small square opening with a flat stone lintel, while the first floor has five ventilator slits. At the rear, steps lead up to an opening that has similarly-moulded jambs and an original chamfered lintel, positioned opposite the first-floor front doorway.
