Barn at Grove Farm (30 Metres to North East of House)

This is a 16th-century barn located 30 meters northeast of Grove Farm house. It features a timber frame set on a low brick sill and is covered in dark weatherboarding. The barn has a very steeply pitched roof that was originally thatched but is now made of corrugated asbestos. It consists of three bays and faces west into the yard, with tall double doors in the middle bay. There is a catslide extension at the rear, which is part of the middle and south bays.

The barn has heavy chamfered jowls on the bay-posts, while the mid-bay posts are unjowled. The mid-height rail is jointed in-line, and there are straight braces connecting the tie-beams and wallplates in the middle bay. Above the mid-height rail, straight tension-braces are present in the walls. The roof structure features inclined straight struts to the collars of the clasped-purlin roof, with simple splayed scarf joints in the purlins. A winnowing door is located at the rear of the middle bay, and there are strainer collars between the purlins at the mid-bay. The barn also includes a series of joint assembly numbers and an unusual edge-halved scarf joint in the wallplate, which has off-centre bridled butts and two heavy face-pegs.
