Description
This is a 17th-century timber-framed barn located on the south side of a group of trees, formerly part of Deard’s Farm. The barn has a tarred red brick base and a plain tile roof. One gable end faces the road and includes a modern garage door. The left elevation features a lean-to addition, likely indicating a previous aisled construction. A central gabled cart entrance is present with red brick additions dating from the late 19th and early 20th centuries.
