Description

This building is a store and barn located in the grounds of Barrington Court, to the northeast of the house. It was constructed between 1921 and 1925 by architects Forbes and Tate. The structure is made of coursed rubble and features gabled and half-hipped roofs covered with single-Roman tiles. It has a central coped verge topped with a weathercock.

The front of the building is symmetrical and designed in a style reminiscent of a medieval tithe barn, with a slightly projecting central porch and slightly projecting wings at each end. It is a single storey with an attic, comprising a total of 1:6:1:6:1 bays. The central porch includes a tall segmental-headed opening with a keystone and a plank door at ground level. Above this, there is a hay-loft opening with a plank door and an oval opening framed in freestone on the gable face.

The wings have door openings at ground level, also with plank doors. The eaves of the half-hipped roofs project to form hoods over the first-floor openings, which are complemented by two hipped-roofed dormers flanking the central porch. On each side of the porch, there is an arcade of six openings supported by concrete piers, with weather-boarded infilling and glazed upper portions. To the left of the front, there is a heraldic stone lion-couchant on a stone pier, and to the right, a gateway flanked by similar stone lions.
