Threshing barn to the north-west of the farmhouse. Dated to the 18th century. It is built of roughly coursed stone rubble and now has a corrugated iron roof. There are two typical large central opposing doorways in the long elevations. A first floor doorway to the north of the eastern doorway suggests that the northern half of the barn had a loft for storage. In the south gable is a large window for additional light and ventilation. The southern part of the building was converted to stabling in the 19th or 20th century.

The barn is listed at Grade II for the following principal reasons: Architectural interest - despite some partial rebuilding, overall it survives well and retains a high proportion of historic fabric; Historic interest - it illustrates well the character and development of regional farming traditions: Group value - as an integral element of an historic farmstead.
