Barn 15 Metres West of South House Manor

The barn located 15 metres west of South House Manor is a Grade II listed structure that dates back to the 17th century, with an 18th-century conversion to stables and a carriage house. It now serves as a store. The barn is timber-framed and clad with weatherboarding, featuring a brick extension to the north and a corrugated tiled roof.

On the exterior, there is an English bond red brick plinth, except on the north return. The 18th-century horizontal weatherboarding is visible, with the east elevation showcasing two central plank doors. These doors are flanked by a six-paned fixed window to the south and a three-light casement with glazing bars to the north. The north return is made of early 18th-century English-bond brick, while the south return remains weatherboarded. The west elevation has two central plank doors and two ventilation windows equipped with internal sliding shutters.

Inside, the barn features three principal trusses supported by jowled posts that bear chamfered bridging beams with tongue stops set into the faces of the principals. The tie beams are cambered and chamfered, with arched braces extending down to the principal studs. The northern truss was removed in the early 18th century. The secondary studwork is of heavy scantling, and the middle rails have both straight and arched braces at the corners. The interior partition walls of the centre and south rooms are weatherboarded. The south ground-floor room contains one horse stall at the south end and two feeding racks at the north end. Replaced ceiling joists suggest the former location of a staircase. The north room features a tall tapering early 18th-century brick chimney stack, along with a copper and hearth that includes an oven door. The first floor has brick nogging on the east and west walls, with the east wall plate being reused. At the south end, there is a splayed trench cutting into a through-splayed tabled edge-halved scarf joint. The west wall has a blocked four-light diamond-mullioned window, and the east wall of the north bay shows mortises for a similar window. The roof was replaced in the 20th century.

This barn is listed for its group value with South House Manor and for its preservation of 17th-century fabric, along with the 18th-century stable conversion and the added brick hearth and hood.
