This is a barn located approximately 70 metres east of Stanton's Farmhouse, dating from the 16th to 17th century but originating from the 13th century.

The top plate has a bladed scarf joint, and several pairs of 13th-century storey posts remain in the restored barn from the 16th and 17th centuries, with the later posts being jowled.
