Barn 50 Metres South East Of Hensting Farmhouse

This is a barn located 50 meters southeast of Hensting Farmhouse, dating from the 15th century, with an additional bay added in the 17th century. It features a timber-frame structure with dressed stone, rubble flint, and some brick infill, topped with a thatched roof that has tiled porches and eaves. The barn consists of nine bays with an added bay. On the farmyard side, there are two bays in from each end of the original barn that have a midstray half-hipped porch. The low walls are only 1.5 meters high, and in the center, there are three bays, with most bays on the far side having 18th-century two and three-light casements. The 17th-century bay has a timber frame with brick infill, lacks an aisle on the barn side, and has a corner cut off, supported by carved brackets for the wallplate. The roof is half-hipped, with the lowest part over the aisles tiled. Inside, there is a queen-post roof with straight braces to the ties and aisle plate, one set of continuous purlins with straight windbraces, and an aisle tie positioned halfway up the main part.
