Barn Parallel to Road, Circa 30 Metres North of the Paddocks

This is a detached barn located approximately 30 metres north of The Paddocks in Shipton Oliffe, dating from the early to mid-18th century and the late 18th century. The barn is constructed from coursed and squared dressed stone and limestone rubble, featuring a corrugated asbestos roof on the west side, and asbestos tiles and artificial slates on the east side. There is a weather-boarded two-storey porch/store on the west side.

The barn has a rectangular shape with a projecting porch/store on the west side, which includes a small stable block at the left gable end. The barn features a plinth with a flat-chamfered top and three courses of pigeon holes towards the apex of the right gable end, each with a stone landing platform. There is a partially blocked pitching window below these pigeon holes. The ground floor has two open bays separated by a timber upright, with a stone string above a timber lintel.

On the west side, stone steps lead up to a landing within the weather-boarded porch/store, which has one stable-type door and one plank door providing access to the two halves of the barn. The entrance to the stables is located to the left of the weather-boarded porch/store, with partly blocked windows on either side of the door opening. There are segmental-headed pigeon holes just below the eaves to the left of the projecting porch, each with a stone slate landing platform. The formerly open-fronted store is now used as stables, with an artificial stone front set back on the left and access via two stable doors. The roadside wall features two 20th-century single pane windows and a pitching window to the loft. The gable end has flat coping with roll cross saddles and stone ridge tiles.

Inside, the barn is divided into two sections, each with three bays, and retains its original roof trusses, which include collar and tie beams and butt purlins.
