weatherboarded timber frame outshut at centre. On south west side the
original aisle wall has been rebuilt in brick; cart entrances to left

weatherboarded. Interior: Main frame is largely intact except for
rebuilt aisle wall and missing original studding and rails on north
east wall and south east end. Tall jowled aisle-posts with curved
braces to aisle-plate and tie-beams. Queen-posts of cruck blade form
supporting principals and collars which clasp diagonally-set through
purlins; the principals diminished above the collars. Curved wind-
braces to the clasped purlins but none to the tenoned (butt) purlins
below; similar butt-purlins in aisle. Common rafter couples complete
and no ridge-piece. Some of the aisle ties may have been replaced.
