Description

The barn was subject to building recording as part of a planning application. It is a large single storey structure aligned north to south and dates to the early 18th Century, built of uncoursed stone rubble. The barn is shown on a map of 1823, at the northern end of a rectangular farmyard. It has been subject to small alterations in and around the buildings since this time. It retains features dating from the 18th and 19th Centuries but was subject to alterations in the 20th Century. An earlier range to the northwest shown on historic mapping has since been removed.
