Description

There are two barns located approximately 20 meters northeast of Hill Farmhouse. They were likely built in the 17th and early 18th centuries. The barns are timber framed with red brick infill and have roofs made of plain tiles and asbestos sheets. They sit side by side along the northwest side of the farmyard, with the northwestern barn probably being slightly older than the southeastern one.

The framing of the northwestern barn features three square panels from the cill to the wall-plate and a long straight tension brace. The southeastern barn has one square panel below the eaves on its left half. The northwestern barn has entrances on the left and in the center, along with a ground-floor hatch on the right. The southeastern barn has a former wide cart entrance on the left, which is now blocked and has 20th-century windows inserted, and a door with a cambered head in the center. The right half of the southeastern barn has been rebuilt in brick.

A 19th-century gabled hen-house that is positioned at right angles to the southeastern barn is not included in the listing, nor is Hill Farmhouse itself, which is a late 20th-century house built on the site of an earlier farmhouse.
