Description
This linhay, located to the northeast of North Bulcombe Farmhouse, is probably from the 18th century. It is built of stone rubble and cob, topped with a tiled roof that is hipped at the left end and connects to a second linhay on the right. The exterior features a seven-bay lofted design with rectangular stone rubble piers reaching up to the loft floor level, with weatherboarding and corrugated iron placed between the piers. The open-fronted loft has a distinctive construction style: the outward-leaning posts are morticed into the crossbeams and secured to short horizontal posts at the top, with the rafters positioned in the angle formed by the outward-leaning and horizontal timbers. Inside, there are pegged collar rafter roof trusses with halved collars. This linhay is an unusual farm building and has group value with North Bulcombe Farmhouse.
