Description

This barn, located 2 metres south-west of Perry Green Farmhouse, dates back to the 16th century and was altered in the 19th century. It features a timber frame, is weatherboarded, and has a roof made of handmade red plain tiles. The barn consists of four bays aligned north-south and includes a midstrey to the west. There are lean-to extensions with corrugated iron roofs on both sides of the midstrey. Notable architectural details include jowled posts, heavy studding with curved braces that are trenched to the outside, an edge-halved and bridled scarf in the wallplate, and cambered tiebeams. The roof was rebuilt in the 19th century.
