Description
This threshing barn, now used as a store shed, was likely built in the late 17th century and altered in the 19th century. It is constructed of brown brick in an English garden wall bond, with a graded grey slate roof. The barn is two storeys high, and a single-storey former shippon (animal shelter) is attached to the right. Threshing porches are located at the front and rear, each having a pentice roof supported on buttresses with a triangular plan. The front has double boarded doors under a sinuous brick arch; the rear opening has been bricked up. The 19th century additions include circular pitch-holes for ventilation to the loft, and camber-arched windows and doors to the lower storey at the front. A blocked opening with a brick label of 17th century style is visible in the west gable.
Inside, the barn has oak kingpost trusses with fishbone struts and straight windbraces, with incised Roman numerals marking the joints. The rafters are supported by unsawn oak purlins. A late 20th-century chipboard floor sits on 19th-century joists.
