5/79 Threshing barn about 40 metres
east of Hill
GV II
Threshing barn. Probably C18. Cob barn with corrugated iron roof (probably formerly
thatched), gabled at left end, hipped at right end.
Plan: Rectangular on plan with opposed double doors in the centre, remains of
probably later rounded stone rubble horse engine house to rear left, lean-to at right
end.
Exterior: Single storey. Large double threshing door on front in centre, small door
and window in lean-to at right. The horse engine house is largely ruinous.
Interior: Pegged collar rafter roof trusses with 2 collars.
The barn is opposite and above Hill (q.v.) on the opposite side of the road and the
best surviving building of the farmyard that presumably belonged to Hill. Important
to the immediate setting of Hill which it overlooks.
