Description
Kipping Barn is a large, 17th-century barn constructed of large, coursed gritstone with a stone slate roof. The barn’s gable end, facing the road, is two-storied, featuring a central entrance with a squared jamb, accessed by steps, and small, squared surround window openings on either side, set above the entrance. Ventilation slits are positioned just above ground level. On the east side, facing a stone-paved yard, is a central, full-height portal with a four-window range. A small pentice is located at the north end. The interior is aisled, with later partitions; three posts are exposed. The roof features shallow king post trusses. The barn served as a meeting place for the Thornton Independents in the latter part of the 17th century, and a license was granted to John Hall, owner of the barn and Kipping House, in 1678.
