1/15 Farm building south-east of Peckforton Hall

GV II

Barn, late C17, stone, brickwork and oak boarded timber framing with slate roof. 2 Storeys, 4 bays. Stone to first floor level with Oak boarded timber framing above this to eaves level on north side and east end. Brickwork replaces the timbers on the west side of the building. There are internally splayed "arrow slit" openings in the lower part of the stone wall. The studs in the timber framing are close spaced for an agricultural building. Some original heavy floor beams. The trusses have high collars with four posts rising from the tie beam and there are braces from the timber frame to the underside of the tie beams. Old ridge tree and purlins.

A more recent brick continuation of the barn, at the east end is of no interest.
