Barn, stables and linhay. C17 with some C19 repairs. Partly-plastered cob on
rubble footings, mended here and there with C19 brick and rubble; corrugated iron
roof (formerly thatch). L-shaped building altogether, each range facing onto farm
courtyard. The north-facing range comprises a pair of stables with 2 central
doorways, unglazed outer windows and 2 first floor loading hatches, and a 3-bay
linhay to left. The east-facing range comprises a small barn with its large
opposing doorways to the threshing floor set left of centre, flanked by linhays, 2
bays to left (south) and 3 bays to right. Stable roof has hipped end and main
range is gable-ended. All linhays of similar construction (Alcock's Type T1).
The full height timber posts along each open front are of large scantling and rest
birds-mouth fashion on upright stones with vaguely pointed heads. Linhay roofs
carried on A-frame trusses with pegged lap-jointed collars some of which may be
original C17. Stables and barn have early or mid C19 replacement roofs made up of
king post trusses. Included for group value.
