Gunthwaite Hall Barn approximately 50 metres north of Gunthwaite Hall (east part)

Gunthwaite Hall Barn, located approximately 50 metres north of Gunthwaite Hall, is a barn from the mid-16th century, with a dividing wall added around 1800 and a re-roofing completed around 1978. It was built for Godfrey Bosvile, who was the lord of the manors of Gunthwaite and Oxpring. The barn features coursed squared rubble for the lower walls, a timber-framed upper section, and a stone slate roof.

Inside, the barn has eleven internal bays that are fully-aisled on each side. The south elevation, facing the farmyard, includes full-height, renewed, harr-hung cart doors at bays three and nine. Bay six, which once had a similar door, is now walled up. There are small doorways with pegged timber surrounds and ogee heads to the left of bay three and to the right of bay nine. Each bay has a ventilation slit with a chamfered surround in the stone lower walls, and the upper walls are supported by diagonal strutting. A later building attached at bays four and five is not of special interest.

The rear of the barn features opposed full-height cart entrances with harr-hung doors at bays three, six, and nine, along with chamfered ventilation slits similar to the front. The upper walls have vertical close studding with irregular bracing, while bays seven and eight have been fully stone-walled at a later date. The left and right return gables are also fully stone-walled.

Inside, there is a dividing wall between bays five and six, and twelve king-post trusses with struts that are arch-braced to the ridge. The posts have jowled tops with lifting holes on stone footings, and they are arch-braced to the arcade plates and tie-beams. The straight aisle-ties are braced to the wall posts. The truss on the left abuts the end wall, while the truss on the right is built into the end wall. All structural members are extensively stop-chamfered. In the cart bays, the arcade braces are smaller and spring from a higher point to provide headroom. Bays ten and eleven contain later cattle stalls. This barn is noted for being an excellent and complete example, unique in this area.
