Description
This former barn, located approximately 5 meters southeast of Arbour Hill House, dates back to around 1760 and was built for Robert Conyers Darcy, the Earl of Holderness, of Hornby Castle. The structure is made of coursed rubble sandstone with ashlar dressings and features a 20th-century pantile roof with stone slates at the eaves.
The barn is two stories high and consists of three bays. It has a plinth and quoins. The ground floor includes two recessed porches beneath a timber lintel of an older opening, a 12-pane unequally-hung window, and a stable door. There is a band at the first floor level. The first floor features 12-pane unequally-hung sash windows with wedge lintels and projecting sills, along with an eaves band.
At the rear, the building has a plinth and quoins, with a first-floor band. There are three 20th-century windows on the ground floor and three first-floor 20-pane unequally-hung sash windows with wedge lintels. This barn is part of a formal composition with Arbour Hill House and another barn located to the southwest of the house, contributing to its group value.
