TL 63 NE STEEPLE BUMPSTEAD 4/3 Barn approx. 30 metres SSE of Latchleys Farmhouse II GV

Aisled barn, early C16. Timber framed, weatherboarded, roofed with corrugated asbestos. 5 bays aligned N-S, main entrance originally to W of middle bay, now blocked. Abuts on smaller C17 barn to N. Jowled posts, arched braces to cambered tiebeams and to arcade plates. Raking shores below aisle ties to sills. Curved braces trenched inside heavy studding, originally with wattle and daub infill, now replaced. Edge halved and bridled scarfs in arcade plates, face-halved scarfs bladed at one end and housed at the other in wallplates (Hewett 1980, figure 269). The combination of these different scarf types in the same building is particularly interesting, indicating the older and well- proven type used in the position of greatest stress, the newer and more experimental type used where it is well stabilised by studs. Mainspan roof rebuilt to lower pitch for asbestos cladding. RCHM 7.
