Description
The Barn is a 17th-century barn that has been converted into a house, with late 20th-century alterations. It features a timber-frame structure with rendered infill, partially faced in rubble, and a concrete tile roof. The barn consists of four bays aligned east to west, with a former threshing floor now serving as a drive-through located to the east of the center. The building is two storeys high and includes a gable-lit attic. Modern windows have been inserted into the framing. The framing consists of three square panels high, with straight tension braces and straight angle braces. The gable-end truss has three struts to the collar and V-struts in the apex.
