Description

This byre, located approximately 70 meters north of Foxearth Hall, dates back to the 16th century. It is constructed with a timber frame and is weatherboarded, with rough rendering at the rear. The roof is clad in corrugated asbestos. The building features five stable doors with good hinges and has brick floors. It consists of ten bays and is considered a large and rare survival, making it particularly interesting due to its early date.
