St Loe's Studio

St Loe's Studio is a stained glass artist’s studio that was converted into a cottage in the late 20th century. It was originally created in 1911 by Sidney Barnsley from an earlier outbuilding for Henry Payne, a member of the Royal Watercolour Society.

The building is constructed from local limestone and features a Cotswold stone slate roof. It has an L-shaped plan, with the former studio located in the north-south range and the workshop in the smaller east-west wing, which is the original structure on the site.

The building is single-storey, with the main range having a hipped roof and a fully-glazed north gable end. On the long east side, there is a central gabled half-dormer window with mullions and transoms, along with a smaller mullioned window. The western side, where the wing is attached, features the main doorway, which has a plank and batten door with wrought-iron fittings. The lower wing includes a chimney for the kiln that rises just above eaves height near the re-entrant angle between the two ranges. Both ranges are equipped with large roof lights.

Inside the main range, the space is characterized by two large cruck trusses that Barnsley installed to create the studio area for Henry Payne. The building has since been adapted for domestic use.
