Description
The barn and adjoining outbuilding, located about 40 yards east of Great House Farmhouse, likely date from the 17th century, with alterations made in the mid-19th century and mid-20th century. The structure is timber-framed and weatherboarded, resting on a rubble base, and features a corrugated metal roof. It consists of five bays oriented east to west, with a central wagon bay that has opposing cart entries and double doors.
Inside, the wall-frame includes three rows of panels extending from the sill to the wall-plate, with some short straight braces in the upper corners. The roof structure has altered collar and tie-beam trusses, with struts and V-struts above the collar at the ends and between bays four and five. There are also two intermediate tie-beam trusses with raking struts, as well as an intermediate collar and tie-beam truss with two struts, one of which is missing.
The adjoining outbuilding is constructed from similar materials, including some brick and boarded infill, and has a slate roof. It features four framed bays and two levels. The main north elevation includes two ground floor two-light windows, nine upper-level two-light windows, two shuttered loft openings, and four doors. Inside, the wall-framing consists of three panels from sill to wall-plate, and the roof has collar and tie-beam end trusses with struts, along with three intermediate tie-beam trusses featuring raking struts.
