Barn at Troy House Farm

The barn at Troy House Farm is a Grade II listed building that serves as a barn and lofted stable or coach-house, constructed in one range. It is made of random sandstone rubble, which includes some materials from an earlier timber-framed structure. The eastern gable has been rebuilt in red brick, and the roof is primarily slate, except for a section of the southern slope that is covered with corrugated asbestos sheet. The building has a rectangular plan oriented east-west and faces north, with the barn comprising five structural bays and the stable featuring two bays at the eastern end.

The barn section has large opposing wagon doorways in the center, with the northern doorway being particularly tall, extending through the eaves. The walls on either side have plinths approximately 1 meter high, each supporting a heavy, weathered oak sill that stands on four wall-posts recessed into the masonry, marking the first and fifth bays. Each bay on the northern front has two slit breathers in the lower half of the wall and one in the upper half, arranged in a triangular pattern, all of which are now blocked internally. The southern wall has slit breathers at only one level, which are also blocked.

At the eastern end, the stable or coach-house features a sliding garage door in the first bay, a segmental-headed stable door in the second bay, and a segmental-headed loft doorway in the center above these, flanked by a pair of slit breathers that remain unblocked.

Inside the barn, there are stone piers along the southern wall at the junctions of the bays, and the roof is supported by king-post trusses with fishbone struts. The king-posts are bolted to the tie beams, while the other members are pegged and marked with carpenter's marks. Similar trusses are found at both the western gable and the junction with the stable or coach-house section.
