Description


TQ 72 SE EWHURST NORTHIAM ROAD

13/707 Brayburn Farm Barn

II

Threshing barn. Built in 1833 following an act of arson which destroyed an earlier
barn on the site. Red brick laid in English garden wall bond with weatherboarded
waggon entrance with double doors and brick ventilation slits. Interior has door
openings with principal posts having gearstock jowl sand diagonal struts to tie
beam. The half-hipped roof is of collar and side purlin construction with a wind-
brace at each end on the north side. The man responsible for setting fire to
the earlier barn, a farm labourer called William Goodsell was subsequently hanged
and this was a local cause-celebre. See E Austen 'A Tragic Story of Revenge at
Ewhurst', the Sussex County Magazine, Vol XIX, No 7, 1945. Rev M Rayner 'Same
Account of the Conversion and Death of William Goodsell', East Sussex Record Office,
Ewhurst Parish Documents. Daws Diaries Hastings Museum.
