Description

Brayburn Farm Barn is a threshing barn built in 1833 after an act of arson destroyed an earlier barn on the site. The barn is constructed of red brick laid in English garden wall bond and features a weatherboarded wagon entrance with double doors and brick ventilation slits. Inside, there are door openings with principal posts that have gearstock jowls and diagonal struts supporting the tie beam. The roof is half-hipped and constructed with collars and side purlins, featuring a wind-brace at each end on the north side. The arsonist, a farm labourer named William Goodsell, was hanged for his crime, which became a local sensation.
