fronted with wooden posts on chamfered padstones, the original posts square with
triangular-stopped chamfered arrises; some replacement posts; hipped roof.
Interior: barn: jowelled arcade posts rise from brick walls projecting from walls
and are braced to wall plate, arcade plate, and tie beams; curved queen strut roof
trusses; butt purlins; long straight wind braces; old rafters; plank ridge piece.
Original partition dividing off end bay has brick and flint plinth wall supporting
weather-boarded timber-framed superstructure. Cart-entry jamb posts have slotted
base-posts (to receive planks to partly block entrances when threshing). The
arcade posts at the cart-entries have incised graffitti the earliest dates being
in the 1820s. Shelter sheds: King-post roof trusses with raked struts, the
king-posts bolted on to tie-beams; clasped purlins; plank ridge pieces, the rear
walls have timber plates, possibly used to support man-gers. The buildings were
in a dilapidated state at time of inspection. The 1808 tithe map shows the
existing enclosure within which the yard is located; it does not appear on the
1735 tithe map.
