Tithe Barn (q.v.)

BARN. Early C15. Coursed squared ironstone rubble walls, remains of thatched roof. Seven bays, central doorways, with added porch on north side, and C19 addition to west. Remains of diagonal buttresses at corners. Ventilation slits with splayed internal reveals to gables and to left of entrance on south elevation, which is also pierced by two later doorways and a later window. Upper cruck trusses with single collars; some low collars are secondary. Ruinous in 1985, but important as being, on the evidence of close similarity of details, approximately contemporary with the Tithe Barn (qv) and thus part of the rectorial farm built by New College.
