10/9 Barn, Stable and Granary, Birdwood House

GV II

Barn, stable and granary; early C19 or late C18, Flemish bond brickwork to barn, on random rubble plinth, bricks yellowy, but every fourth course red: wings at each end random rubble. Double roman tiles at roof, except stable, corrugated asbestos. 'L' plan: barn, with lower wings in line each end, and a short return stable end. Barn: central, double doors in heavy timber frame, stops just below eaves, now faced metal sheets. To left 2 rows of 2 slit air vents, similar to right but one replaced by boarded door. Internally 3 bays; right side inserted loft. Air vents wider inside. Tie-beam truss with angle struts and collar: 2 pairs butt- jointed purlins. Long wind braces cutting rafters. Building to left 2-storey, boarded stable door on left, with small, shuttered opening against barn on right. Left return boarded door at far end: first floor central door, part in gable, with 2-light wooden window on left, an iron bar in each light. Lower room has short, planted timber on underside floor above with socket, possibly for cider mill. Upper floor granary, walls and sloping ceiling plastered: probably had timber steps up to door originally. To right of barn, lower wing, boarded door at far end: blocked windows in the other 2 external walls : beams supporting loft floor over remain. At right angles a single-storey wing, with boarded door on right, one tie-beam truss, single window in back wall: originally for livestock. All small doors in timber-frames, without a lintel. Barn, stable and granary appear to be of same date, single-storey wing added later.
