Structural inspection report of a redundant bank barn undertaken in advance of an application to convert. The barn, of cob and stone, is built into sloping ground to the south, with the west, north and east walls forming retaining walls at ground level, built off bedrock. Only the western half of the roof remains now clad with slate and steel sheets. The first floor remains only at the west end.
The building originally extended southwards at the east end but collapsed following a vehicular impact. It is understood that the owner would like to rebuild this section.
Ordnance Survey, 2022, Mastermap 2022 (Cartographic). SDV364674.
Only the northern of the two buildings, aligned south-west to north-east is shown.
