Description

Booth's Farm is a shippon, originally a barn and shippon, dating from the 17th century and significantly altered in the 18th century. The building is constructed of brick with an oak frame featuring rectangular brick-nogged panels and a strutted queenpost roof truss at the rear gable. It has a grey slate roof and a small mid-20th century brick lean-to on the right side. There is a blocked opening in the center of the front that once led to a threshing floor, along with two blocked basket-arched openings on the left side for the shippon. The windows are wood casements, and the hayloft roof is supported by oak queenpost trusses.
