Barn 550 Metres South West Of Boundary Farmhouse (Sometimes Known As Pettaugh Barn)

This barn, located 550 meters southwest of Boundary Farmhouse and sometimes referred to as Pettaugh Barn, dates from the late 17th century. It features a timber frame clad in tarred weatherboards, with sections of the original plinth made of narrow red brick. The roof is covered with corrugated asbestos. The barn has a central cart entry, with a porch to the northeast that was originally gabled but has been reduced to a lean-to, and cart doors on the southwest side. There is a 20th-century addition to the southwest that is not of special interest.

Inside, the barn consists of five bays with heavy studding, a mid rail, and straight or near-straight plank-like braces halved against the inside of the studs, although some braces are missing. The two end bays were originally used as stables with lofts above; the posts in trusses two and five are unjowled and show mortices for floorbeams and down braces from their heads. The associated cross-partitions were likely open at the first-floor level, as the tie beams show no evidence of braces or studding. Trusses three and four feature arched braced tie beams, and all four open trusses now have bolted-on knees. The original cart entry is on the southwest side, while the porch on the opposite side is an early 18th-century addition. The roof has eight bays with two rows of diminished stepped butt purlins, although the two center bays are mostly missing.
