Barn At Stonebury Farm (75 Meters To North-West Of House)

This is a 17th-century barn located 75 meters northwest of Stonebury Farmhouse on Barkway Road in Hare Street. The barn features a timber frame set on a red brick sill and is covered in dark weatherboarding. It has a steeply pitched half-hipped roof that is currently clad in corrugated iron, although it was originally thatched. The barn is tall with five bays and a single aisle, facing east. It has a rear aisle and double doors in the middle bay, with a pitching door to the right and low double doors cut into the wall to the left. The structure includes jowled posts for the walls, arcade, and aisle, mid-height rails that are jointed in-line, and long curved braces supporting the tie-beams and arcade plate. The roof is a clasped-purlin design with collar and queen-strut trusses, featuring an extra collar at the mid-bay. The aisle purlin is supported by a curved brace that rises from the aisle tie to the back of the arcade post, with separate rafters for the aisle.
