The threshing barn is Grade II listed and dates to the late 18th century. It is excellent example of 18th-century timber-framed barn, it has been well-constructed by a professional carpenter. The vast majority of the timber-frame consists of original hand-sawn timbers, with minimal areas of modern repair. The barn exists very much as the listing states with the exception of the thatch roof - this has been replaced with corrugated metal sheeting. |
