Description

This barn, located approximately 40 metres south-west of Great Warley Hall, dates back to the 15th century and has been altered in the 20th century. It is timber framed and weatherboarded, with a roof made of corrugated iron. The barn consists of five bays arranged in a north-south direction, featuring two aisles and a midstrey on the east side. There is a small outshut at the north end. The roof is hipped at the south end and hipped with a gablet at the north end, which creates a catslide over the outshut. The roof of the midstrey leans against the main roof.

Architectural details include jowled arcade posts and wallposts, heavy studding with curved braces that are trenched to the outside, edge-halved and bridled scarfs in the arcade plates, and arched braces to the tiebeams and arcade plates. The barn has a crownpost roof with axial bracing, which retains the structure of the original gablet hip at both ends, although the rafters at the north end have been replaced with softwood, eliminating the gablet externally. The midstrey is a 17th-century addition that originally had a pitched roof but has been re-roofed as a lean-to, likely when the thatch, recorded in 1960, was replaced by corrugated iron.
