Vendors Comments - "The original barn was built in the early 1800's and was part of a working farm until it's closure in the 1980's. Built on firm clay, the external walls were constructed of random stone boulders, believed to be from the riverside but with brick gable ends and a couple of brick lean-tos. A pitched slated roof was supported by timber purlins which sat on two internal brick cross walls and a king post truss. Hay lofts existed at each end of the building constructed over the original cattle stalls.
The current 'Stone Barn', whilst standing on the original footprint, retains only the two internal cross walls from the original barn, both having been underpinned with reinforced concrete footings.The original external walls were demolished and rebuilt but faced using the original stone boulders, all on a foundation of reinforced concrete footings and floor slabs. The king post truss and a number of purlins are the only other items which have been retained from the original barn".
