Barn at Fenns Old Hall

A timber-framed barn on a stone and brick sill, mainly clad in modern weatherboards, with a steep slate roof. Facing the yard is a central doorway to the wagon bay, to the R of which is line shafting and belt wheels for a portable engine to power the threshing. Modern boarded openings are to the main floor and loft. The L gable end has an inserted doorway and boarded loft opening. The R gable end is rebuilt in brick below the gable and has 2 progressively lower ranges in-line, of brick with slate roofs. They have boarded doors and steel-framed windows, and a pigeon hole in the gable end facing the road. The rear of these additions is attached to a 1920s farm block. The rear of the barn is mainly earlier weatherboarding on the brick plinth, but the R-hand side is partly rebuilt in brick and has an inserted window.

The original box-framed structure is visible inside the building, and is largely intact except for a portion of the rear wall. The 5-bay roof has queen-post and collar trusses with angle braces to tie beam, and windbraces. Some cross beams of a former loft have also been retained.
