5/55 Barn approximately 30 metres north-west of Scotton Old Hall (formerly 15.3.66 listed as "Barn at Old Hall")
GV II
Barn. C17 and C18. Coursed squared rubble, graduated stone slate roof. Single storey, 10 bays; with rear outshut. Quoins. Central cart entrance with chamfered quoined jambs and a raised segmental arch. Byre door to left with similar jambs and monolithic segmental lintel. 2 inserted square windows to left again with a square loading doorway above which has a large lintel and is flanked by a row of 7 (left) and 10 (right) pigeon holes. To right of cart entrance: 3 rows of slit vents; an inserted doorway far right; an original loading door with sandstone surround above. Rear: double doors set back from line of outshut; the outshut also interrupted to left by the insertion of a large gabled wheelhouse with square openings and pantile roof. Blocked doorway and two 6-pane windows to right. Left return: owl hole in apex of gable. Right return: chamfered jambs and flat lintel to first-floor doorway, 4 rows of slit vents; attached shed not of special interest. Interior: 2 rear aisle posts remain at the north end of the building; they are braced to large cross beams which rest on the top of the east wall and carry a queen-post roof. The remainder of the aisle posts removed when a stone wall was inserted, the wallplate however survives. The slit vents on the north and east walls are single splayed. The north end of the building appears to be little altered since the C17 but the southern half has been divided along the line of the outshut, suggesting a separation of byre or stabling. The building is probably described in 1727 in an indenture between Sir Henry Slingsby of Scriven (owner of the lordship) and Edmund Whitehead of St Robert's Priory in Knaresborough. Sir Henry was letting the Priory the Chantry House, with barn and stable and closes, where Mathew Umpleby lived, but he excepted from the agreement the barn, stable and fold which Mathew enjoyed, they "being part of the great barn called Hall Barn". This suggests that the barn had been let in two parts - perhaps one part with the Hall and the other part with the Chantry House (not surviving).
