Description

This building is a bank barn located to the west of Low Green Farmhouse, dating from the late 18th century. It is constructed of stone rubble with large quoins and features a corrugated iron roof, with slate used for the outshut. The stone elevation includes six segmental-headed cow house entrances, with the end entrance being taller, possibly originally serving as a stable. The entrances have pivoted doors with hinged opening sections, and there is an elliptical-arched opening at one end. Additionally, there is a segmental-headed winnowing door and an end window, along with a small inserted window to the right of the door. The left side has a segmental-headed cow house entrance, while the rear features 20th-century paired barn doors leading up a ramp. The outshut, which has a catslide roof, contains three segmental-headed cow house doors. The right side has a segmental-headed window to the outshut. Inside, the barn has timber and stone partitions for the cow house, and the outshut includes a rear feeding passage with a coped wall supported by posts and stop-chamfered spine beams with run-out stops.
