Description
The Field Barn is a Grade II listed building constructed from limestone rubble with Lakeland slate roofs arranged in diminishing courses, and sandstone slates on the pentice roof. It has a rectangular plan oriented from northwest to southeast, featuring a pentice roof on the center of the northwest elevation, along with a smaller, narrower single-storey extension attached to the northwest gable.
Located in a gently sloping low-lying meadow, the barn's northeast elevation showcases some quoins and a tall central entrance framed by large irregular quoins and a substantial chamfered lintel. This entrance retains its original threshold, although the boarded door is a recent replacement. Flanking the central door are groups of four narrow ventilation slits on both the ground and first floors. To the right, the attached feed store has a pitched roof and a large opening at the left end, which is fitted with a modern replacement boarded door. The southwest elevation also features a centrally placed entrance and pentice roof, with ventilation slits on either side at both ground and first floor levels. The southeast gable includes a second entrance made of large irregular quoins and a segmental head set in a triangular lintel.
Inside, the barn is open and plain, with timber lintels above both doorways. The historic roof structure remains intact, consisting of four pegged trusses, double purlins, and a ridge piece, with the timbers forming the trusses appearing to have been reused.
