Description
This building is a bank barn located approximately 70 metres west-southwest of Lower Holscombe, dating from the late 18th century or early 19th century. It features a steeply pitched corrugated iron roof with half-hipped ends and has a long rectangular plan. The barn has shippon doorways on the lower south front and two barn doors at the higher north side at the back.
The exterior is two storeys tall with a symmetrical south front that includes six shippon doorways with flat slate arches and two loading doors above, located towards the centre, all covered by corrugated iron canopies supported by wooden cantilevers. At the rear, there are two barn doorways with large roughly hewn timber lintels and later boarded double doors, also with corrugated iron canopies on wooden cantilevers. Ventilation slits are present in the gable ends.
At the left end of the south front, there is a single-storey wing with a hipped roof and an open front, featuring a central rectangular stone rubble pier, likely serving as a cattle shelter, with pegged roof trusses. Inside the barn, the walls are plastered.
