BARN NORTH EAST OF ABBEY FARM

DESCRIPTION + /

Barn, formerly the west range of the house of Sir Thomas Dacre built on the site of the Outer Court of Lanercost Priory. Mid 16th century; with 19th century additions. Mixed calciferous and red sandstone rubble partly from the demolished Priory (originally stone from the Roman Wall); graduated red sandstone slate roof with coped gables; stone end chimney stack. Long barn of two storeys. Rear wall, facing Vicarage gardens, has central two bays with blocked ground floor window and blocked two-light chamfered stone-mullioned windows above. Flanking walls are probably a 19th century addition. Wall to farmyard appears to be completely 19th century of older stone. Ground floor and loft plank doors, 19th century chamfered-surround windows and large 20th sliding door. Listed partly for group value with the adjoining Vicarage.
