Interior: king-post roof with single-angle struts and trenched purlins.

Dovecote: attached to rear with roof parallel to barn. Three bays. Central doorway has composite jambs and deep lintel with chamfered surround. To right, a two-light double-chamfered mullioned window. Other later openings. Right-hand gable has two-light window to apex.
