Description

This is a barn located approximately 30 meters northeast of The Ashes. It dates from the 17th century and has some alterations from the late 19th century. The barn is constructed from coursed dressed and squared stone and features a tiled roof with verge parapets and pitched copings on corbelled kneelers. It has a two-level plan, with a hay loft above cow sheds. The long west-facing side has seven hay loft doors, with the right-hand door spaced widely apart. The ground floor includes a segmental-headed cart entry at the left end and five doors, which are paired in the center, along with a top-hung casement window to the right of each door, except between the paired doors. One window is now blocked. The south gable, which faces The Ashes, is made of noticeably finer quality-finished stonework. This barn is part of a complete 17th-century group.
