Description

This is a cruck barn located approximately 25 metres east of Upper House Farmhouse. It is possibly from the 16th century but was encased in the mid-19th century. The barn is constructed of thinly coursed rubble with rock-faced quoins and dressings, topped with a stone slate roof. It features five internal bays and small openings with quoined surrounds.

Inside, there are four cruck trusses with extended tie-beams, although some tie-beams have been sawn off. A full inspection was not possible at the time of the survey in 1986.
