Description

The barn at Roke Farm, located 30 meters south of the house, dates from the 18th century. It features brick walls and a 20th-century tiled roof that replaced the original thatch. The elevation facing the road includes a projecting gabled cart porch with a weatherboarded gable, and the front wall is buttressed. There are also some triangular dormers in the roof. To the left of the porch, there is an open lean-to with a slate roof supported by timber posts. The roof structure was renewed around 1970. Attached to the barn on the south side is a cart shed with a granary above, likely built in the early 19th century. This structure has a brick end wall and a slate roof, with the upper part of the front wall weatherboarded and the lower part open, supported by timber posts.
