Barn 25 Metres North Of Lee Park Lodge

Lee Barn, located 25 metres north of Lee Park Lodge, is an early 18th century threshing barn. The barn features weatherboarded sides, except for the north side which is made of brick. Originally, the roof was likely thatched, but it is now covered with tin sheets. In addition to the double cart entrance, there are later-added double doors at the north end of the barn.

The barn consists of seven bays and has aisles on both sides. The oak roof structure is mostly intact, featuring five queen post trusses that are clasped to a pair of purlins. The tie beams are supported by straight braces that are pegged to the wall posts. Most of the rafters appear to have been replaced. The principal posts are set on chamfered concrete plinths. On the east side, the wall plate rests on timber framing, while on other sides it sits on concrete blocking that rises to one and a half metres high, which is supported by a cement plinth. A concrete block division closes off the southernmost bay to the same height as the barn walls.

This barn is of special interest as an early 18th century timber framed threshing barn with a double cart entrance. Despite some structural modifications made to support the original structure, it retains most of its original timber framing and overall plan-form.
