Converted Barn Range To West Of Sheldon Manor

The converted barn range to the west of Sheldon Manor dates back to 1723, with alterations made in 1911 and the north end rebuilt as a cottage in 1968. The structure is built of rubble stone and features stone-tiled roofs. The south end barn, now functioning as a tea shop, has a projecting west side with a half-hipped cart entry, which has been infilled. The west side has been altered with various stable openings, while the east side has a blocked plain cart entry and a reused early 18th-century moulded doorcase with a 9-panel door that was taken from a demolished house at Allington Bar.

The second barn, which is stepped up, has a half-hipped west cart entry and was converted into two cottages around 1911. This section includes ridge stacks, a three-window range, and a two-storey house to the right of the cart entry, with windows in the cart entry, a lean-to porch, and a dormer to the left. The rear wall features two narrow lights, a reused 9-panel door, and a two-light mullion window with a hood.

The north end, rebuilt in 1968 by O. Brakspear, includes two dormer gables on each side, mullion windows with king-mullions, and two segment-headed glazing bar windows on the ground floor of the west side. Running east and enclosing the north side of Sheldon Manor's garden, there is a single-storey range with four open bays and an enclosed stone section that has a reused early 19th-century Gothic panelled door. The east gable is hipped, and the stone section features a thick masonry west wall, which is part of a pre-17th-century building. Additionally, a 20th-century hipped roof summerhouse has been added at the west end; it was originally open to the south but is now glazed.
