Barn (first noted by A. Rogerson (NLA)). East gable wall horribly over-rendered but with plinth of grey stone (Sandringham beds? Snettisham stone?). Quoins and openings are formed in red brickwork of post medieval type. Similar random bricks in the walls. East end two storeys; north wall has a doorway at first floor level now reduced; east wall has a blocked upper window, its lintel removed by lowering of the roof, and a ground floor window covered by raising of ground level (which slopes down to south). Further west in north wall is a pair of cart doors and brick slits. West end and interior not seen
E. Rose (NLA), 29 October 1999.
East gable collapsed, being rebuilt. West gable to be rebuilt in replica. Roof has two orders of butt purlins.
