4/46 Granary about 60 metres south east of Wardsbrook Farmhouse

GV II

Granary. Probably C18. Weatherboarded timber frame on brick plinth. Red clay plain tile half-hipped roof. Plan: 3-bay structure with an outshut at the front (south) right containing a staircase to the granary on the first floor. The ground floor has a doorway at the centre of the front immediately to the left of the outshut. On the ground floor the left hand bay is partitioned off for a stable entered from the left hand (west) end. Exterior: 2 storeys. On the south front the right hand section projects under a catslide roof and at the projection there is a doorway to the right. Another doorway immediately to the left of the projection. Both doorways have C20 plank doors. Small square window opening on both floors on the east end and another at the rear (north) on the first floor. The left (west) end has a doorway to the right with a C20 plank door and a small corridor to the left and one above in the gable. Interior: Light scantling 3-bay large framed construction with jowled posts. 2 central trusses of light scantling timbers. Each truss has a cruck blade on the north side only, crudely fashioned and supporting a collar with clasped purlins above, rather like a base cruck. Instead of a couch blade the south side of each truss there is a thin curved brace or strut which rises from the first floor beam to support the collar above which there is a clasped purlin. This cruck derivative is most unexpected in the south east of England. There is a row of wooden pegs probably for harnesses on the ground storey in the outshut. The stable at the left (west) end is separated by a low partition and has a wooden manger on the back (north) wall.
