Barn Approximately 35 Metres South East Of Upham Farmhouse

This building is a barn located approximately 35 metres south-east of Upham Farmhouse, dating from the late 16th century to early 17th century, with an enlargement in the late 19th century. The main structure is made of plastered cob on rubble footings, featuring some 19th-century brick patching, while the extension is constructed of plastered brick and has a corrugated iron roof, which was formerly thatch. The barn faces west, with the 19th-century extension on the right (south) end under the same roofline.

On the left of the centre, there are large 20th-century garage doors, and to the left of these are two unglazed 17th-century oak windows. The first window has five lights with only one surviving original chamfered mullion, while the second window has four lights and retains its complete set of chamfered mullions. At the first-floor level, there are two loading hatches: one above the doors and another near the right end. Near the left end, there is an unglazed 19th-century casement window with glazing bars. The roof is hipped at both ends.

In the left (northern) end wall, there is a 17th-century oak doorframe with a chamfered surround, although the stops have worn away. Another original doorway in the rear wall is blocked, but the lintel above it is soffit-chamfered with scroll stops. The 19th-century section of the barn is open to the rear.

Inside, the older part of the barn is floored, and the ceiling features four bays supported by large scantling crossbeams that are soffit-chamfered with step stops. These beams rest on large oak posts, most of which have jowled heads. In the roof, one side-pegged jointed cruck survives, while the remainder consists of a mix of 18th-century and 19th-century A-frame trusses with pegged or nailed lap-jointed collars.
