Description
This building, located about 50 metres north-northwest of The Grange in Great Burstead, is a brick farm building that may have served as a cattle shelter or implement shed, with integral stables and a granary. It dates from the late 18th century or early 19th century and is constructed of Flemish bond red brick, featuring some blue headers and weatherboarded timber-frame end gables. The roof is made of corrugated asbestos sheets with gabled ends.
The building has a long rectangular shape facing the farmyard to the west. It includes an open-fronted 7-bay implement shed or cattle shelter with a loft above, and stables at the south end with a granary above. It is one storey with lofts. The west front displays a 3:1:3 bay arcade of round brick arches, with the centre arch being larger, supported by stone rectangular piers with stone imposts. To the right, there is a stable doorway and window, and at the south end, a loft doorway in the gable along with two later ground floor doorways. The rear wall is blind, and there is a later 19th-century brick building at the north end. The doorways feature 20th-century plank doors.
Inside, the building has large unchamfered cross-beams with run-out stops and unchamfered joists. There are insubstantial 20th-century partitions separating each bay, and stairs lead from the south bay to the lofts. The roof structure consists of common rafters with a ridge-board, halved and lapped waney collars, clasped side purlins, and alternating pairs of straight collars with birds-mouth joists to the purlins. Large curved timber brackets are set into the front and back walls above the cross beams.
