Description

This is a cruck barn, possibly from the 16th century, located approximately 500 metres west of Bailey Hall. The barn features walls made of sandstone rubble, likely from the 19th century, and has a slate roof. The east wall includes a wide entrance with plain reveals and timber lintels. To the left of the entrance, there are two windows with plain reveals, each having a pitching hole with a plain stone surround above. Next to each window is a door with a plain stone surround, with a third similar door on the far left. To the right of the main entrance, there is a window with plain reveals, which also has a pitching hole with a plain stone surround above, and a door with a plain stone surround to its left. On the north side, there is a shippon featuring three doors with plain stone surrounds in its north gable. Inside, the barn contains three cruck trusses resting on stone pads. The blades of these trusses are not joined at the apex but are held together by a collar. They feature outriders and spurs that once supported principal posts. Additionally, there is a roof truss to the north with a tie beam, king post, and principal rafters. Softwood hay lofts are present at both the north and south ends, situated above later shippons.
