Full Description
{1} Barn already in existence by 1845, as part of Fleet Farm. The barn was used for housing livestock, with a hayloft above- possibly for sheep rearing.
An interesting internal feature is the use of two cranked transverse ceiling beams, presumably reclaimed from a dwelling. The core of the building has undergone little alteration. Converted to a domestic garage in the 20th/21st century. The roof structure was entirely replaced and the doorway at the front re-formed. Internal fittings have been removed, including livestock stalls.
