The barn consists of five bays, with openings in the central and right bays facing the house. The central bay serves as a threshing area, and there is a lean-to addition on the right side. Inside, the structure includes queen posts and struts that support collars which clasp the purlins, along with straight braces connecting the posts to the tie beams.
