Description
The Barn and Fives Wall, located 10 metres north of Well House, is a barn and fives wall dating from the 18th and 19th centuries. It is constructed of local stone rubble with some ashlar dressings and features a plain clay tile roof over stone slate base courses on the south side. The barn consists of five bays and has a door along with two small shuttered windows, which are possibly from the 18th century, in the north wall. The south wall contains various later openings and is supported by one raked and two stepped buttresses. The east wall of the barn rises higher and is reinforced with diagonal buttresses that have offsets and tiled coping. This section may date back to the 17th century, but local tradition suggests it was built by or for French prisoners who were allowed to use the former Windmill Inn to the east, which is not included in the listing, between 1805 and 1815. It was intended for the Basque game of pelota.
