6/4 Barn at Upp Hall (40m of NW of mansion) 22.2.67
GV II*
Barn. Late C16 or early C17. Red brick in English-bond with black brick diaper patterns. Steep old red tile roof with gable parapets on corbelled kneelers. Exceptionally large unaisled barn facing S, on the N side of the forecourt of the house. 10 bays long (about 43m) formerly with 2 large 4-centred arched cart-entrances in the front and rear walls (SE opening remains, others are narrowed or blocked) and a wing not quite at right angles at the W end of the S side, now gone. 2 rows of vent slits some with arched heads and some with straight heads, 200mm wide, splayed inside with segmental rere arches. Fine contemporary roof structure of hybrid style with clasped-purlin upper tier with collars and curved wind braces. Butt-purlin lower tier with queen-struts and curved wind braces. Strainer collars at mid-bay between upper purlins. Flat-laid rafters pass over butt-purlin. Cambered tie beams. E end converted to a chapel in C19 with moulded wooden pointed doorway on S. 2 unusual wall recesses in outside of N wall. 'More spectacular than the house' says Pevsner. (RCHM (1911) 68: VCH (1912) 312- 13: Pevsner (1977) 371).
