Description
Barn Farm Cottage and Attached Barn is a threshing barn and cottage built in the late 18th century and early 19th century, with some alterations made in the 20th century. The structure is made of red brick and features plain tile roofs. The barn has brick coped gables and a brick ridge stack, while the cottage has a brick gable stack on the south side.
The building is two storeys high and consists of five bays, with a single bay cottage that has been extended into the first bay of the barn. The cottage at the north end has a plain segment-headed doorcase with a plank door and a gabled bracketed porch roof on the south side, flanked by three-light segment-headed casement windows. Above, there are two similar flat-headed windows, with the southern window set higher up.
At the north end of the cottage, there is a 20th-century addition that is of no special interest. The barn to the south features almost full-height double plank doors, a two-light window below the eaves, and a blocked opening at a similar level. The south gable wall has doors at both ground and first floor levels, with a hoist on the west side and a square opening above.
Inside the barn, there is an inserted floor at the southern end, a full-height threshing bay towards the north end, and three large king post trusses supporting double purlins.
