Description

This is an 18th-century barn located approximately 30 metres southwest of Park Farmhouse. It features a timber-framed construction set on a high plinth made of coursed ironstone rubble with limestone dressings. The barn is mostly covered in weatherboarding, with some areas of brick infill. It has a clay tile roof and consists of five bays, supported by a queen strut roof. There is a projecting bay on the west elevation, opposite the cart entrance on the east elevation. Additionally, there is a cart entrance on the south elevation, which is likely a later addition.
