Description
A threshing barn of C18 date, extended in the C19.
MATERIALS: rubble stone with limestone quoins and dressings, and timber roof structure.
DESCRIPTION: constructed on a north-south axis, the barn is of five bays. At the north end is an enclosed, lofted, single-bay section, once used as a granary. The main barn has opposing threshing doors and a full-size cart doorway. The posts of two side-pegged jointed cruck trusses survive in the west wall on either side of the rear threshing door. There is a mortise on one for a screen wall. The threshing floor is intact. The half-hipped C20 roof has tie beam trusses and king ties, with bolted lap-jointed collars and three sets of trenched purlins. The north end is divided by a stone rubble wall to loft height and a boarded loft wall with a door at first-floor level. The loft has timber corn bins. The roof is covered in corrugated iron.
