Description
The threshing barn and attached gin-gang, located 40 metres north of Elstob Hall, date from around 1840. They are constructed of light-red engineering brick in English garden wall bond, topped with Welsh slate roofs. The barn is designed in an L-shape with the circular gin-gang positioned near the re-entrant angle.
The single-storey threshing barn features fixed lights set under stone lintels and a roof that is hipped over the returns. The gin-gang has rectangular-plan piers and a conical roof, which is adorned with a cast-iron finial.
There are 20th-century additions to the threshing barn, but these are not considered of special interest.
