Barn At Red Moor Farm

The barn at Red Moor Farm is a 17th-century structure that has undergone some alterations in the 19th century. It is built from white-washed and rendered buff sandstone rubble, featuring projecting through stones. The roof is made of Kerridge stone-slate with a stone ridge. The barn has a long, rectangular shape that slopes downhill, with an outshut at the downhill end. The upper section serves as a corn barn, featuring opposed entrances under a massive wooden lintel at the rear and a 20th-century steel beam at the front. The lower end functions as a shippon, with a loft above that includes three 19th-century openings with hammer-dressed lintels. Inside, there are three original roof trusses, which have arched braces on the tie beams and overlapping through purlins.
