Description

Church Barn is a late 18th century barn that was converted into a house in the early 1980s. It is built from limestone rubble with dressed stone quoins and has a stone slate roof. The building has a rectangular plan and features a projecting two-storey porch on the south side. There are French doors that open to a double-width entrance leading to the gabled porch, with a two-light stone-mullioned casement window above. To the left of the porch, there is a modern plank door set within a pointed-arched surround, and a tall round-headed window above it. A ventilation slit is located to the left, and a modern two-light window has been inserted in a blocked doorway far left, with a single-light window above it. The fenestration on the right side of the porch is similar.

On the north side, there is a double-width door with glazing above it, along with four modern windows and a plank door on the ground floor. A blocked single-width doorway far right has a single-width modern casement window inserted in the blocking. The north wall features four courses of pigeon holes running along its length at second floor height, with projecting bands above and below. Four small modern casements have been inserted at the same level as the pigeon holes. The west gable end has three ventilation slits and five paired pigeon holes, with flat coping and stone stacks at both gable ends.

Inside, the barn retains simple original collar and tie beam roof trusses marked by carpenters. The upper room of the projecting porch is lined with finely dressed stone, and there are two stone-lined niches in the side walls of the ground floor porch.
