Description

This is a barn and cowhouse built in the late 18th century or early 19th century, located approximately 15 metres north of the south-westerly Chapel Lawn farmhouse in Clun. The structure features a weatherboarded timber frame with a coursed limestone rubble plinth on the ground floor to the left, as well as dividing walls and end walls. It has a slate roof, which includes a catslide over a lean-to at the rear. The building is a long range aligned north-south, with a three-bay barn to the north.

On the east front, the cowhouse is to the left and includes four boarded loft doors and four ground floor boarded doors, alternating with slatted windows. There is a later rubble lean-to on the left side. The barn is to the right, featuring a small boarded loft door to the left and a pair of large central boarded cart doors. The gable end to the right has three tiers of vents and a segmental-headed boarded loft door. This barn and cowhouse, along with other farm buildings and the farmhouse, form an important group in the centre of the village.
