Description

Single-storey range on a high stone plinth, the N wall and E gable end weather-boarded, the S wall and W gable end clad in corrugated iron, obscuring the original box panelling. Corrugated iron sheeting to roof. The external openings relate to the agricultural use of the building; the N side has a central doorway to threshing floor containing a single boarded door reached by stone steps. To the S side is a boarded hatch, which may have ventilated the threshing floor, and a wide cart-bay opening to L with door of corrugated iron sheeting; narrow door and loft hatch to E gable end.

The 3 internal cruck-trusses, which framed the hall, are well preserved. The central truss is arched-braced with nail-head decoration to the soffit; the outer trusses have collars. To the E, dais end, a tie-beam has slots for a former post-and-panel partition with a single doorway. The parlour was behind it, the smaller service rooms to the W end behind the passage partition which is now lost. Other features in the building relate to the agricultural phase; boarded partitions partly survive, along with the threshing bay with raised oak floor; mangers to W bay.
