Description
Timbers is a barn that has been converted into a dwelling, dating from the 19th century or earlier. The front of the building is made of flint cobbles with brick dressings, and it has a tiled roof. It is one storey high as far as can be seen. The architectural features include a flat-arched entrance and several casement windows on the east front, which are all of fairly recent date. The roof is hipped, with a gablet and a side stack at the south end. The interior has not been inspected. This building was formerly the principal barn of West Side Farm, which is not included in the listing.
