Tithe Barn, Brecon Cathedral

The Tithe Barn at Brecon Cathedral is a former barn with stone rubble walls and a slate roof. It faces the Cathedral and features a boarded loading door at the upper floor level, along with a doorway below that has dripstones. To the left of this doorway, there is a broad doorway with a relieving arch above, which has modern doors. Further left, there is a three-light mullioned window in a former doorway, also with dripstones. To the right of the central door, there is another broad doorway with modern glazed doors, and a doorway with a dripstone and a boarded door. At the left end, the roof extends over a porch supported by square stone piers, which covers a former saw-pit. The south-west wall facing Priory Hill is part of the boundary of the former Priory precincts and has five window openings with moulded wood architraves, three of which feature ovolo moulded mullions typical of the 17th century, along with modern gargoyles.

Inside, the barn has a queen-post roof with struts connecting the tie-beam to the walls, remains of partitions, chamfered beams, and a floor made of stone cobbles. The bell frame from the Cathedral tower has been relocated to the barn; this frame is likely from the 18th century, although many of the timbers seem to have been reused from an earlier frame.
