Description

Tithe barn, dating from the 14th or 15th century, with alterations and additions spanning the 17th, late 18th, and mid-19th centuries. The barn is constructed of massive ashlar blocks, with later rubble and red brick patching, and mid-19th century red brick walling above the stone. It has a plain tile roof with a mix of red and blue tiles, brick coped gables, and a dentilled eaves band. The building is single-storey with a basement and attic, comprising seven bays, plus a lower single-bay addition to the east and a six-bay addition to the south.

The east elevation has a stepped corner buttress to the north and a gabled 17th-century addition with two recessed and chamfered single-light openings to the ground floor and a two-light similar window above. The barn has a deep chamfered plinth with a break, now filled with rubble stone, likely indicating a former threshing door. There are two blocked narrow, chamfered openings just above the plinth, with four similar openings above, and one inserted opening to the centre. Blank mid-19th century brickwork sits above. The west elevation has been considerably rebuilt with an irregular facade; it includes a four-centred arched doorcase into the basement to the north and a narrow chamfered opening above. Steps lead to a first-floor doorcase with re-used chamfered stone jambs and a plank door to the south. Further features include brick patching, a segmental headed opening just above the plinth, a blocked four-centred arched doorcase, and a recessed and chamfered opening. A plank door is located in the mid-19th century brickwork above the northern door. A later addition to the south has two flat-headed openings and a plank door. The north gable wall features a 19th-century segmental headed doorcase flanked by similar windows to the top of the gable in brickwork.

The interior features large chamfered floor joists and queen strut roof trusses. The 17th-century addition incorporates a malt drying floor with a punched tile floor over brick groin vaults.
