Building record 34/0/32 - Barn at Stoneleigh Farm

The barn dates to the early-mid 18th century and was possibly a smaller building which was extended by 1759. Converted to domestic use in 2016

{1} Identified by South Northamptonshire Council as being a building of historic and/or architectural significance.

{2} Present on a map of 1759 occupying its current extent, probably built built in the early-mid 18th century. The barn, aligned north-east to south-west, has a simple linear form and comprises the main stone-built structure with a simple brick extension at its northern end. A staggered vertical join visible in the north and south walls marks a difference in construction materials. The barn has been re-roofed, likely in the mid to late 19th century, in a style typical of the period, utilising pine and Welsh slate. A brick partition is likely a 20th century addition.
