Description

The building is a threshing barn located to the west of Gartage Hall, dating from the mid to late 17th century, with some minor additions and alterations from the 19th century. It features a timber frame set on a stone rubble plinth, with waney-edge weatherboard cladding and brick additions. The barn has an end-gabled slate roof that is weatherproofed with pitch.

The barn is positioned at the far side of a yard that is accessed from the road. It consists of five bays and has a central gabled waggon porch that projects into the yard, with opposing waggon doors in the outer wall. To the left of the porch, there is a 19th-century lean-to brick addition with a cat-slide roof against the inner wall, and another 19th-century lean-to addition against the right-hand gable-end wall.

On the exterior, much of the framing is concealed by the weatherboard cladding and later additions. The front of the waggon porch features a pair of full-height vertical boarded doors that are clad with corrugated iron. The opening for the opposing doors has been infilled.

Inside, the barn has jowelled bay posts with angle braces supporting the principal beams of the trusses. In some bays, the wall framing includes an intermediate rail at a high level, with panels above that originally contained vertical staves laced with laths. The roof has double purlins with trenched purlins, and each truss features angle struts at the lower purlin level and a collar tie at the upper purlin level. Timber braced strays are present on each side of the threshing floor. The barn and yard may have been part of a former farmstead that included the former farmhouse to the west, now known as Gartage Hall.
