Description

This barn, located 20 meters west of Oaktree Farmhouse, is likely from the 17th century and consists of three bays. It features a timber frame that is partly covered with weatherboarding and partly plastered on laths, with some sections renewed in corrugated iron. The roof is slated, although it was originally thatched. On the east side, there is a set of four boarded barn doors positioned at the center. At the rear, there is a 19th-century lean-to with a catslide roof. The interior has not been examined, but the barn is included in the listing for its group value.
