This barn, located about 20 metres east of Ruffyn's Hill Farmhouse, dates back to the 16th century.

Inside, the barn has five bays with high aisles and terminal outshots, along with long passing shores and eccentric bracing to the main posts supporting a renewed clasped purlin roof. Encased in the ragstone wall on the right return is a Victorian cast iron post box.
