Barn North Of Manor House And Attached Stores

This building is a barn located north of the Manor House in Winterbourne Gunner, dating from the early to mid-17th century. It is timber framed and weatherboarded, resting on brick sills, and features a thatched roof. The barn has five bays with an aisle on the north-west side and central cart doors. The wall framing lacks bressumers but includes tension braces. Inside, there are jowled posts with curved braces supporting tie beam trusses, which consist of tall queen struts and collars that clasp chamfered purlins, along with raking struts leading to lower unchamfered butt purlins. The trusses, starting from the north-east end, include some reused timber. At the rear, there are three 16-pane inserted sash windows. Attached to the south-west end are two bays of stores with a tallet above and a third open bay, which is covered by an extension of a lower thatched roof that is hipped at the end.
