Description
Clay Hall is a barn dating from the 17th to 18th century, located approximately 15 metres north-west of the main house. The barn is timber framed and weatherboarded, featuring a half hipped roof clad in corrugated iron and a brick plinth. It has a central midstrey and full-height double doors, with red pantile and weatherboarded lean-to extensions on both the left and right sides. The structure consists of seven bays, with through bracing in the walls and hanging knees supporting the tie beams. The roof is constructed with side purlins and a ridge board, making it a good example of its type.
