Description
The barn at Rogerthorpe Manor Farm, located approximately 50 metres north-east of Rogerthorpe Manor, dates from the 17th century and has been altered. It features an 18th-century wing on the east side, which has also undergone changes. The structure is built from sandstone random rubble with quoins, and the roof is made of stone slate and pantiles.
The barn has an L-plan layout, consisting of a long rectangular ten-bay range oriented on a north-south axis, with the east wing added. The west side includes a large modern wagon doorway in the fourth bay, along with various blocked or altered windows and doors, and stable doors in the ninth and tenth bays. The roof is primarily covered with stone slates, with some areas patched with pantiles. The north gable wall features an inserted door and two ground-floor windows, as well as an inserted doorway above and gable coping. The south gable wall has a small square window with a wooden lintel. At the rear, there is a lean-to addition at the south end, which is not included in the listing, featuring a pantile roof with stone slate eaves.
The wing attached at the north end of the east side has eight bays. The south side contains two basket-arched wagon doorways and a square-headed wagon doorway between them, all of which are blocked, along with some blocked slit breathers positioned higher up. The roof above this section is covered with pantiles and two courses of stone slates. The north side features a large modern wagon entrance.
Inside, the barn boasts a fine roof supported by tie-beam trusses mounted on timber wall plates, with two sets of trenched and overlapped purlins. The four trusses at the south end have slender raked struts, which were likely added later.
