Barn. Late C17, extended in late C18 or early C19 with further alterations in mid C20. Timber frame, weatherboarded externally to road, with uncoursed local rubblestone additions to each end, all under a slate roof; full-length red brick lean-to with shallow-pitched slate roof to rear. The original structure consisted of 3 equal timber-framed bays with single stone bays, added in the late 18th or early 19th century to form the present 5-bay structure. Roadside (west) elevation has 7 small six-paned windows directly below eaves to centre and large C20 window to north gable end.
Interior. The original square panel timber framing (3 panels from sole-plate to wall-plate) survives intact to the long west wall, but has been largely removed on the corresponding east wall to allow access to the adjoining full-length lean-to on this side, although the wall-posts and straight braces from the wall-posts to tie beams remain in place. The framing is also missing below tie beam level to the original gable ends owing to the addition of the stone bays at each end. Most of the infill to the timber frame on the west wall (clad in weatherboarding externally) is mid-C20 rat-trap stretcher bond but four woven panels of a type characteristic of south Shropshire and the Welsh borders survive at the ends of this wall below the eaves.
