Description
This barn, located approximately 50 metres west of Low Hall, is likely from the late 18th century and incorporates some 17th-century features. It is constructed of sandstone rubble and has a slate roof. The west wall features a wide entrance with chamfered jambs and a timber lintel, sheltered by a canopy with cheeks. To the far left, there is a pitching door with plain reveals. The right-hand gable wall has three shippon doors, with plain reveals; the central and left-hand doors are blocked. Under the apex of this wall, there are pigeon holes and an owl hole above.
Adjoining to the right, beyond a straight joint, is a rear wing that seems to be a later addition. This wing has two doorways that have been blocked to create windows; the left-hand window has plain reveals, while the right-hand window features a chamfered surround. Between these doorways is a three-light window with rebated and chamfered mullions, although the lower half is blocked. On the first floor, there are blocked breathers, and to the right, there is a former three-light mullioned window, with one light blocked and one mullion removed. Inside, the main barn roof is made of hardwood and features tie beams and raking queen struts.
