Barn at Little Moreton Hall Farm

The barn at Little Moreton Hall Farm is a Grade II* listed building dating from the 15th century and constructed in two phases. It features a timber frame covered with clapboard and has a plain tile roof. The barn is single-storey and divided in the center by two walls. The western front has a 20th-century stone plinth that runs along the entire building, topped with 20th-century clapboarding. There is a double doorway in the center, flanked by three square pitch-holes in the upper walling. The eastern front is also clapboarded but has no openings. The right side of this front projects slightly, while the roof aligns with the ridge line on the left. The gable ends are clapboarded and have double doors at the ground floor.

Inside, the southern end contains four pairs of cruck beams, each with a single spur on either side. The beams do not meet at the apex but are connected by a yoke. All pairs include collar beams, and two have a tie beam. Between each truss, the side walls feature four by three cells of small framing, except for the southern end of the eastern wall, where some displacement has occurred. Some of these cells still have infill of butted boards, which have been covered by the 20th-century clapboarding. The roof has two purlins and a ridge, along with wind-bracing that may be of a later date. The northern truss in this section has small framing between the blades with butt-boarded infill. The northern end contains four additional pairs of cruck blades, which are slightly wider and have two spurs on each side. This section also features walling of four by three cells of small framing with some butt boarding, and the frame is grooved to accommodate the boards. The southern pair of blades here has infill of small framing with butt boarding, creating a partition similar to that in the northern half.
