porch set within a portal of the aisle. Composite jambs, wooden lintel,
harr-hung door. Doorways in re-entrant angle to mistals. Left hand return
wall has breather holes, through-stones and arrow slit to apex.

Interior: 4 bays with good oak roof. Angle-strut trusses with crossed
principals with straight set ridge. Those either side of threshing floor
are carried on tall stone piers with chamfered capitals. The easternmost
truss is carried on tall concave posts on padstones, braced to ridge and
with aisle-ties and arcade plate resting on stone pier. Some reused timbers
with ½ lap-joints. This gives 2 bays now blocked by inserted stone walls.
The posts are thin and could possibly be re-used cruck blades inverted.
