The 2 southernmost bays have original upper floors, reached by an old solid-tread stair from a door in the gable end. The floors in the other 2 bays are probably later insertions, the main floorbeam supported on knees. The studding, visible only at the upper level, is mostly original except in the side walls of the north half. No evidence for cart entry or original windows in north half. Intact roof has a single row of wind-braced clasped purlins.
