Full description

Child, P., 1989, Proposed Conversion of Barns, Lower Aylescott, West Down (Correspondence). SDV340857.

The smaller barn which forms the north eastern side of the yard is of some antiquity, as it has roof trusses of a 17th century type, 1 with curved feet. There is also a 17th century window, with a chamfered frame and central mullion, in the wall facing the farmhouse, although this may have been reused as there is another in the rear wall of the linhay.
