Barn And Attached Stables About 30 Yards South-East Of Sutton Court

This building consists of a barn and attached stables, located about 30 yards south-east of Sutton Court, and is likely from the 18th century. The barn features a timber frame with brick infill and weatherboards, set on a plinth of coursed sandstone rubble. It has a stone gable on the south side and a roof that is tiled and has corrugated asbestos, hipped to the north where it meets the stables. The barn is arranged in five bays, oriented roughly north-west to south-east. The west elevation includes a full-height entry in the second bay from the south, along with weatherboarding. The east elevation, partially obscured by a mid-20th century shelter (not included in the listing), has a full-height entry to the left of the brick nogging. The frame consists of regular square panels, three high from the cill to the wall-plate, and the interior features raking strut trusses connecting the ties to the principals. The stables, attached to the north-west end of the barn, are constructed with a combination of brick and timber framing, also featuring brick infill and large garage doors on the north elevation. Together, the barn and stables, along with the attached barn to the east, form an interesting farm complex.
