Workshop At West End Of Range Along North Side Of Barnby Hall Farm

The workshop at the west end of the range along the north side of Barnby Hall Farm is a farm building that was formerly an aisled hall house, dating from the 15th or early 16th century. It features a timber frame that is clad in coursed rubble, added in the 17th or 18th century, with later brickwork on the left gable and rear wall. The building has a stone slate roof and consists of three internal bays. There is a central cart entrance with a timber lintel, a small blocked vent, and a partially blocked quoined entrance to the right. At the rear, there is a small outshut.

Inside, the structure has two timber frames with posts that are braced to tie-beams and arcade plates. The trusses include struts to the purlins but lack principal rafters, featuring a collar rafter roof. Part of a third frame is still visible in the left gable wall. The left bay is two-storied with a midrail in the second truss. The central bay serves as an open hall, while the right bay contains a hearth position and a cross-passage.
