Description
This barn, located alongside the footpath immediately to the west of Denbar Potatoes, has a core dating from the 16th to 17th century and has been altered, likely encased in the early 19th century. It features fragmentary timber framing and is constructed from rubble magnesian limestone, with stone slate eaves courses leading to a pantile roof. The barn is single-storey and consists of six bays. Notable architectural details include large quoins, large boarded doors positioned to the right of the center with a quoined right-hand jamb and wooden lintel, and two raking buttresses on the left with a blocked doorway beyond. There are also triangular vents, shaped kneelers, and ashlar gable copings.
Inside, the upper parts of wall posts and an associated tie beam are visible in the left gable. The adjacent bay division also contains wall posts and one original curved brace to a tie beam, along with later principal-rafter trusses. This barn was part of South Farm but was likely once associated with Skellow Hall to the west. Other adjoining farm buildings are not of special interest.
