Description

The Tithe Barn, located to the south of Campden House, dates back to 1628 and was restored around 1846 for Lord Gainsborough, with further restoration in the 1930s, likely by Norman Jewson. The barn is constructed of ashlar with a Cotswold stone roof and features two storeys. It has heavy 17th century ogee moulded footings and a chamfered plinth, along with a moulded string course. The barn includes vents shaped like crossed arrow loops, similar to those on the south gable of the Court House. The west gable is supported by heavy stepped buttresses. The building has a cross plan with projecting gables over elliptical-headed through doors, which are topped by corniced three-light mullion windows. The east end of the ground floor has been converted into an Estate Office. Inside, there is a queen-strut roof. Historically, the grange of Combe was associated with Bordesley Abbey, suggesting that the barn may have an even earlier foundation date.
