Description
The barn, situated about 12 metres north of the stables, was originally a smaller building likely used for estate offices, later enlarged to provide barn accommodation. It dates to the early 19th century, with further enlargement occurring in the later 19th century and subsequent alterations. The barn is constructed of coursed limestone rubble with stone dressings and long and short quoins. The right return is faced in limestone ashlar, and the roof is corrugated iron with a brick stack.
The south-east front features a plinth, and a central cart entry with a timber lintel; a former window head and keystone are incorporated into the stonework under the eaves. A small fixed light with a timber lintel and a blocked door are located to the left, while a lower cart entry with a timber lintel and a doorway in a plain stone reveal are found to the right. A band course is present, and at the first floor, a six-pane sash window is on the left, with a similar, blocked window to the right, both set in stone surrounds. To the right of this is an unglazed lunette in a stone surround, and a corner pilaster. A cornice runs along the top.
The left return showcases a plinth and an arcade of three round-headed arches with voussoirs; the central arch is blind. A six-panelled door is on the right, with double doors to the left, each with glazing bars in the upper section. The band course is returned, and three blind rectangular windows are positioned above. The right return exhibits a plinth, an arcade of three blind round-headed arches, each with a band course set within; the outer two arches are open above the band course. Further features include a band course, three blind rectangular windows, two mortices in the stonework, corner pilasters, and a cornice.
The rear of the barn displays three bays to the right, divided by a straight joint showing the extent of the original building. The ground floor to the right has a canted bay with two sashes and a central door with an overlight, all with keystones, a band course, three blind rectangular windows, and a cornice. The left side features a door with a timber lintel, a band course, two similar blind windows irregularly spaced, and a cornice.
Inside, the barn has a five-bay 20th-century roof. A dividing wall is located to the left of the cart entry (formerly an external wall) and features a similar arcade of three arches; two are blocked, while to the left, a 20th-century door has been inserted. A band course and three blind rectangular windows are above. Brick heads are visible to the inner arches at the right return, and brickwork extends above bandcourse level. The original entrance front of the building faced north-west. The barn is included in the listing for group value.
