Description

This is an early 17th-century aisled barn located approximately 40 meters northeast of Upper Yeldham Hall. The barn is timber framed and was originally weatherboarded, featuring a thatched roof, which was destroyed by fire at the time of the survey in January 1984. It consists of five bays aligned approximately east-west, with a midstrey to the north. The structure includes jowled posts, arched braces to the arcade plates, hanging knees to the tiebeams, face-halved and bladed scarfs, and a clasped purlin roof that is half-hipped. The roof of the midstrey is covered with corrugated asbestos. Notably, some of the arcade posts have been re-used from a 13th or 14th-century barn, which includes trenches for passing-braces.
