Description

This barn, located to the northeast of Buck Farm, dates from the 16th or 17th century and has a later roof. It is constructed with a timber frame and is weatherboarded, topped with a grey slate roof. There is a midstrey on the west side, and the barn features vertically boarded double doors leading to the courtyard, as well as double doors on the south gable end. The structure consists of five bays and includes arched braces to the tie beams and through bracing to the walls. It is considered a good example of its type.
