Description

The building assessment recorded two principle trusses of a barn roof which appeared to be of early 19th century date. The trusses have clearly been remodelled, but it is uncertain if they have been introduced from another building or altered in sity, although the latter seems most likely. Though some of the purlins also show signs of reuse, the poor quality of the timberwork suggests that they have previously been part of another agricultural building.
