Description
This small barn, dating from the early to mid 19th century, is located 5 metres southwest of the farmhouse on the south side of Higher Truscott. It is constructed from stone rubble and features a rag slate roof with hipped ends. The barn has a rectangular plan, likely originally designed for shippons or stables on the ground floor with a loft above. The exterior is two storeys high, with an asymmetrical front elevation that includes two entrances on the ground floor, each with dressed stone flat arches and granite keyblocks. There is a wide opening on the first floor where 20th-century glazed double doors have been inserted. The barn is part of a group that includes the farmhouse and a small outbuilding to the south.
