SY 78 SW POXWELL MANOR FARM
9/63 Barn, at north west corner of farmyard 26.1.56 (Formerly listed as Barn 120 yds N of Poxwell House) GV II* Barn, at north west corner of farmyard. Late C16. Squared rubble walls. Clay tile roof with stone slates at the eaves, the north and south ends are gabled with plain copings and finials. The west porch has a hipped roof. The larger east porch is longer of 2 storeys and gabled. In the west wall is a blocked doorway with chamfered jambs and four centred head. In the south end wall is a small window of two 2 centred lights set in a rectangular recess below a quatrefoil with sunk spandrels. The whole is cut from one stone and is probably reused from an earlier building of C16. Interior: the roof is carried on five trusses, of which four are of jointed raised cruck type, with the posts that form the lower parts of the cruck blades standing on short lengths of timber built into the walls. The fifth truss is built in two tiers; the main jointed crucks do not reach to the apex but are continued by secondary crucks standing on a collar. The dates 1772 and 1773 scratched on the stonework may give the date of repairs to the roof. (R.C.H.M. Dorset II, p. 262 (4). Figure Pt I, p. (xv)).
