Barn Approximately 65 Metres North North East Of The Manor House

This is a barn, likely dating before 1836, situated approximately 65 metres north-northeast of the Manor House. The barn is constructed of red brick, with a Flemish bond on the exterior and English bond on the interior. It has a pantile roof and a linear east-west plan.

A central, octagonal engine house is a prominent feature, approximately 40 feet in diameter; its east and west sides, and all sides, are longer than its north and south sides. This octagon rises above integral barns, the ends of which abut the full width of the east and west sides of the octagon. Each barn is five bays long and appears to have originally had a two-bay threshing floor immediately adjoining and open to the octagon. High, lean-to extensions are located on the north side of each two-bay threshing floor area, their brick walls flush with and integral to the north face of the octagon. The lean-to and threshing floor areas are undivided. Each lean-to has full-height double doors facing north, with corresponding doors in the south-facing wall of the threshing floor. Broad openings with high semi-circular relieving arches connect the lean-tos to the octagon through the northwest and northeast canted sides. Later, lower lean-tos have been added to the north side of the remaining three bays of each barn. The east barn also has a three-bay lean-to extension on its south side. A low flint and brick cart shed has been built as an extension to the west gable end of the west barn, returning to the south. A later cattle yard to the south is not considered to be of special interest.

The octagonal engine house has a dentilled brick eaves cornice and a conical roof with a weathervane. Rectangular honeycomb vents are located high in the walls on the northwest and northeast canted sides, with alterations to those on the southwest and southeast sides. A blocked ventilation slit is present in the centre of the north wall. The roof of the octagon has two tiers of shaped, slightly staggered, butt purlins on each of its eight sides. The north, south, east, and west sides each have two principal rafters that abut hip rafters at the upper purlin level. There are no tie-beams. A single collar spans the northeast-southwest direction above the upper purlin level, supporting a plain king post, which is strutted upwards to each hip rafter from approximately halfway up. The barn roofs feature a single tier of aligned shaped butt purlins, high collars, and ridge-poles. Tie-beams are present on alternate trusses only; the remaining trusses have long raked wind braces to the principals. Remains of a brick floor are visible running north-south across the octagon, and rammed lime is present in the southeast corner. Despite later alterations, the barn is remarkably complete and represents a comparatively rare survival, reportedly one of only five in Norfolk.
