A timber-framed threshing barn with sandstone plinth walls, reroofed and consolidated for continued agricultural use.
The plinth had failed in three places where modern guttering had concentrated rainwater. We dismantled and rebuilt the weakest course, replaced two heavily eroded quoins with carefully selected indents, and repointed throughout in hot-mixed lime.
The cruck blades were scarfed at their feet with green oak, pegged rather than bolted. New oak sole plates take the load off the original timber.
The roof was retiled with the original clay tiles, salvaged and sorted by colour before relaying.
