II

Range of barns, C17-18. Timber framed, weatherboarded, roofed with corrugated iron. Consists of (1) one barn of 5 bays aligned approx. N-S, with aisle on W only, with midstrey to E. Jowled posts, straight tiebeams, arched braces to them and to arcade plate. Primary straight bracing, heavy studding. Vertical queen struts, clasped purlins, with extra clasping collars at half-bay intervals. Bladed scarfs in arcade plate and wallplate. Original W door blocked with corrugated iron. In original E doorway there are carved grotesque brackets, each representing a female figure with cloven hoofs, tenoned aid pegged into the angles between the jambs and lintel, original to the structure, with traces of original red paint. The grotesque N of the doorway has been mutilated to fit a later knee. Outside the brackets there are rough 'spandrels' of weatherboarding, indicating that the lean-to midstrey has been added after the original barn had been completed and clad with weatherboarding. The brackets are comparable in style with those at George Bootes House, Felsted, dated 1596, and in this context probably indicate construction in the period 1600-1640. (2) A barn of 5 bays extended to the N of (1) without an aisle, with midstrey to the E and double doors to the W. Posts now jowled, arched braces to straight tiebeams. Primary straight bracing. Inclined queen struts to principal rafters. Clasped purlins with arched wind bracing. Late C17/early C18. Listed for Group Value. RCHM 4.
