Description
The building is an 18th-century barn, later converted into a dwelling. It is timber framed and clad in weatherboard, with a half-hipped roof covered in dark red tiles. A red brick chimney stack is present. The barn is two storeys high. A central gabled midstrey is prominent. The window arrangement is 2:1:2, featuring 20th-century two-light casement windows. A vertically boarded door with a flat canopy is positioned in the midstrey, and a further vertically boarded door is located to the right. The timber frame remains largely intact, featuring framed side girts and through bracing. Bolted knees are visible on the tie beams.
