Description

Fox Barn is an 18th-century barn that was formerly part of Home Farm. It was converted into a house in 1979, retaining the original main timbers and following the old profile. The building features weatherboard and brick construction with an old tile roof. There is a front porch that has been rebuilt in brick, with a modern window replacing the original cart doors. Inside, the main timbers are exposed. The barn is included for its group value with Home Farmhouse.
