Description
This is a 17th-century barn at Rookery Farm, located on the south side of Jeskyns Road in Cobham. It is a timber-framed and weatherboarded barn of eight bays, with two midstreys. The roof is hipped and thatched. The southern two bays have cambered tie beams with queen struts. Later alterations to the north have obscured the original design.
