Barn At Lower Farm To North East Of Honeysuckle Cottages

The barn at Lower Farm, located to the northeast of Honeysuckle Cottages, dates from the late 16th century. It features four bays and one aisle on the south side, along with a midstrey. The structure is timber framed and partly rendered with wattle and daub. The south and east walls have been largely rebuilt in the 19th century using rubble and flint, with brick quoins. The roof is partly thatched and partly covered with asbestos, and it is half-hipped. The aisle tie-beams are jowled and braced up to the arcade postheads, while the end walls are tension-braced. The roof has clasped purlins, and several soot-blackened rafters have been reused from a medieval house.
