Barn About 30 Metres East Of Sweaton Farmhouse

This barn, located about 30 metres east of Sweaton Farmhouse, dates from the early 19th century. It is constructed of granite rubble and has a roof that is currently covered with corrugated asbestos, which may have originally been half-hipped. The barn is a single storey and may have had a loft at one time. On the west front facing the farmyard, there is a wide doorway with a wooden lintel, and directly opposite it on the east wall, there is a smaller doorway set high up. A ventilation slit is present in the north gable, and there is a loft door with a concrete lintel in the south gable. The roof structure was rebuilt in the 20th century. This barn is included in the listing for its group value with nearby structures.
