Description
This is a barn, likely dating to the late 17th century. It is constructed with red brick bases and large timber framing, with weatherboarding to the upper parts. The roof is covered in plain tiles, gabled on the left-hand side and half-hipped on the right. The barn is five bays wide, with an aisle along the front. A hipped midstrey, with double plank doors in the centre, provides access. Double plank doors are also located in the centre of the rear elevation. Internally, the barn features a double queen-post roof with windbracing.
