Building record 2888/3/2 - Barns c. 20m North-West of Home Farmhouse

Two barns are located 20 metres north of Home Farmhouse, on the western side of the High Street. The southern barn was built during the mid 18th century with a separate barn added to the northern gable in the 19th century. The barns are orientated on a north to south axis and are constructed of squared coursed limestone with a shared double pitch Collyweston slate roof. The mid 18th century barn has projecting ashlar parapets and quoins with a central cart entrance under a wooden lintel with pairs of ventilation slits each side of the door. The 19th century barn has a cart entrance on the left under a wooden lintel.
