Description

This barn, located immediately south-southwest of Beenleigh, dates from the 17th century and was later used as a cider house. It is constructed of slate rubble and other local stone rubble, topped with a thatched roof that has gabled ends, although the roof level has been slightly reduced.

The northeast front features a wide cart entrance that faces the house, with a timber lintel and flanking raking buttresses. To the left of this entrance is a wide doorway with a timber lintel, which has been partly blocked and has a window inserted. There is a smaller doorway at the center of the rear elevation, opposite the cart entrance, which has a cambered timber lintel and projecting slate rubble jambs.

Additionally, there is a row of pigeon holes below the eaves on the right side, and more pigeon holes are found in the northwest gable end, which also has a long ventilation slit at the center and an owl hole at the apex of the gable. A loft door is located at the southeast end. The barn has a 20th-century roof structure and is adjacent to the mill to the southeast.
