Description

ASHBOCKING THE STREET
TM 15 SE
7/5 Barn 50m north of Manor
Farmhouse
GV II
Barn, early or mid C17. 3 bays. Timber-framed and weatherboarded. Pantiled
roof,once thatched. Good framing: arch-braced tie beams (all but one brace
are replaced by C19 knees). 2-tier butt-purlin roof; the upper tier of
purlins are wind-braced. The two outer bays are subdivided at roof level by
trusses having principal rafters, collar-beams and knees bracing the
principals to the posts; a technique not normally found in barns in Suffolk
before the late C18, but one giving much greater space through the omission of
tiebeams.
