Description

Larkinglass Farm Barn, located on the east side of the farmhouse, is a barn that likely dates from the late 17th century or early 18th century. It features a timber box frame with later brick infill and has a half-hipped roof covered in asbestos slate. The barn has central opposed doors, and one gable is partially weatherboarded. This type of construction is unusual for this area.
