This is a barn located 20 meters west-southwest of the house at Frays, dating from the 18th century or earlier, with a rear outshut extension added in the 19th century. The barn features a timber frame set on a red brick sill, which has been rebuilt at different times, and is covered in dark weatherboarding. There is a red brick extension at the rear. The barn has a steeply pitched slate roof that extends over the later outshut. This building is included for its group value with the nearby house.
