Description

DRINKSTONE HILL FARM LANE TL 96 SE 1/17 Barn and attached stable, - 40m north-west of Hill Farmhouse GV II Barn, late C17. 3 bays. One aisle on north side. Timber-framed and weatherboarded. Corrugated iron roof, once thatched. A gabled porch at centre of north side: barn doors missing. Complete framing: tie beams with long archbraces at open trusses: straight braces from posts to arcade plates. Rudimentary passing-braces in aisles, nailed and possibly later with the porch. Clasped purlin roof. Studding with long arch windbraces (two braces at corners are primary). There are additional members at the east end, both girths and braces, at the junction with the stables. These are Roman pantiled roofed, and retain stable doors (barn doors missing). The framing is of slightly later type, suggesting the stables were rebuilt or extended with some reused timbers, in C18. In poor condition at date of survey.
