Barn About 23 Metres North Of Mercer Farm House

This barn, located about 23 metres north of Mercer Farm House, dates from the late 16th century or early 17th century. It is timber framed and weatherboarded, standing on a 19th-century brick plinth. The roof is hipped and covered with corrugated iron, featuring gablets. A central porch is positioned on the south side, with a lean-to canopy. The barn is oriented at right angles to the road. The interior, which was only briefly inspected, consists of three and a half timber-framed bays. There is a midstrey in the second bay from the east, with jowled posts, arch braces, and curved passing shores. The roof structure includes clasped purlins with diminishing principal rafters and windbraces.
